Union Pitchers era still reflect my original point by still beating them dispite only 3 hits. Call a spade a spade; bard allowed 254 runs this season and scored less than a third of that which skews teams stats.

Remarks on 2014 LL Tournament:
1st Games:
Union beats Vassar. - Fishmen (U) is tough on lefties. Vassar has a lefty heavy lineup. Vassar freshman ace isn't that good.
Clarkson beats Rochester. - Clarkson can at least pitch a little. Rochester has nothing.
2nd Games:
Union beats Clarkson - O'Neil is good enough to keep Clarkson bats at bay.
Vassar beats Rochester - based solely that Rochester is a joke program. UR out in 2 straight.
3rd games:
Vassar beats Clarkson - Both teams #3 pitches aren't anything special. Vassar can hit the ball around.
Finals:
Union beats Vassar - Not sure how this will go. Vassar could take the first one but ultimately Union wins.
That's what I think.
For what its worth, SLU should be in the playoffs. Only team not to play the two brutal last place teams who were 3-39-1 combined (every other team played both squads) and still came out with an above 500 record. SLU only had 2 bad loss all year (game 2 to Union & game 4 against Clarkson (after they already beat them 3 times and pitchers walked everybody )). every other loss were close games that could have went either way.
Every teams individual statistics (BA, ERA etc. ) are skewed based on playing the two crap teams so throw them out the window.

Does anyone know how the scheduling works in this league? How can a team in its second year be qualified to play in the league and not even record a single win. At least Skidmore is capable of maybe taking 1 from some opponent. These are the amount of games played against the bottom two horrible teams in the LL.
Union – 11-5-1 – 2 v Bard, 4 v Skidmore _____ 6 games
Rochester – 16-8 – 4 v Bard, 4 v Skidmore______ 8 games
RPI – 11-7 – 4 v Bard, 4 v Skidmore _____ 8 games
RIT – 11-7 – 3 v Bard, 4 v Skidmore______ 7 games
Clarkson – 10-7 – 4 v Bard, 4 v Skidmore (this weekend) ____ 8 games
Vassar – 9-7 – 4 v Bard (this weekend), 2 v Skidmore ____ 6 games
St. Lawrence – 9-8 – 0 v Bard, 0 V Skidmore ____ 0 games
The standings are so skewed this year in the LL. Without Bard/Skidmore - Rochester and Clarkson are .500 teams at best. Union, Vassar, SLU, and RPI should be post season teams. SLU got unlucky with schedule. They could have used an easy 4 win weekend like those experienced by UR.
