DVs 4, Fungoes 3

DVs and Fungoes hooked up via netplay in 7 unremarkable, rather mundane games as none were closer than 3 runs. The Fungoes “Spay and Neuter Your Pets” campaign was put to good use as the DV big dogs- Holliday, Stanton, Kinsler and Granderson were a combined 14 for 100 with only one homer (which was wind aided). The Warpig advance scout in the press box was overheard remarking that “the DVs must think this is the first round of the playoffs. Just a matter of time before he starts regaling us with tales of past DV lore”.

Regardless, the DVs avoid a losing season (can YOU say that Pigman?) as they move to 81-43, while the Fungoes hold on to a wild card spot at 70-65.

The rather plain results –

Game 1 (first 3 at DVs): DVs ride a 3 run Blanco HR in the 7th to win 6-3

2 = David Price is awesome – and Nelson Cruz goes 4 for 5 in a 6-2 Fungoes win

3 = DVs rough up Kershaw with 5 in the third and a total of 14 hits in a 14-6 win

4 (at Fungoes WTF Cavern) = Weaver and Storen combine on a 5 hitter in a 4-1 DV win

5 = Latos, Luebke and Clippard combine on a 2 hitter in a 3-0 DV win

6 = Fungoes get pissed as Myers and Papelbon hold the DVs to 4 hits in a 6-2 win

7 = Fungoes really get pissed as they pound out 16 hits on Ogando and crush the DVs 10-1

Let's give it a try...

"The DVs avoid a losing season."

Yes, I guess I can say that, but you're right, it's not an easy thing to say.
