You got me again!!!! Good Job Max.

Back when I won in 2046, I had won exactly one World Series ring in the past 32 years up to that point. They were extremely rare for me. But now, suddenly, I have won four of the past five Fall Classics! Team captain Monroe Patek can't believe how lucky he has been.
This World Series was intense. Luis, your team has a tough rotation but we had superior depth, which is how we managed to win Game Five in extra innings.
BTW, I watched that Game Five on DynastyVision before I knew the score, and it was insane!! There were TWO bases loaded/nobody out situations that produced ZERO runs combined (NYA bottom 8th and HOU top 11th)! And Monroe Patek committed a passed ball in the bottom of the 10th that allowed the tying run to score and nearly gave me a heart attack.
And then the final play of the game was a plus play by my young third baseman who turned a potential game-tying single into the 5-4-3 DP that closed out the World Series.
See you guys next season! HOF vote to follow very soon.

Congrats Max. What a way to finish the season, a huge winning streak to get back into playoffs and a 3-peat to cap it off.

All season long our actual win% was well below our pythagorean, until that winning streak finally created the correction we needed.

Thanks fellas! Yak, you are reminding me that we hit an unbelievable hot streak in September and won 19 straight! Greco was the only owner in the NL that we didn't sweep during that stretch. It vaulted us into the Wild Card.All season long our actual win% was well below our pythagorean, until that winning streak finally created the correction we needed.
