It was another eventful postseason in Kenny Powers that ended with Durham at the top of the heap, defeating Nashville in the World Series 4 games to 2. Durham had an impressive run to end the regular season that shot them up to #2 in the Final Regular Season rankings. That momentum carried on into the postseason as they took out Rochester in 4 games in the Divisional round and a tough Chicago team in the NLCS in just 5 games. Julio Park once again led the offense for Durham, posting a 1.025 postseason OPS, while a solid bullpen made up for the fact that their top Starting Pitcher had a less than stellar playoff run.
Nashville deserves a lot of credit as well for a solid postseason run, making it to the World Series as the 6 seed in the AL. After two tough match-ups against New Britain and Helena, it was the battle of the underdogs in the ALCS as they faced Chicago, who knocked off defending champ and regular season powerhouse Little Rock, in which they prevailed in a back-and-forth 6-game series. They pushed Durham hard in the World Series, but came up just short. Still, hats off to them for a very nice playoff run.
This is Durham's and oakman310's first Kenny Powers title and for oakman310's 5th championship overall. Congrats!
That's it for Season 26, hope to see you back for Season 27 soon!
