Season

Wins

• In the Cold Fire division, the Baltimore Texas took a late lead, but the Seattle Sneakers clawed their way to second place with a late string of victories

• In the Cold Water division, joy in Jersey as the Jersey OSHA Violations made their first postseason since Season 5, maintaining a dominant first-place lead in the Cold Water division during the entire season

• In the Hot Fire division, the Delaware Corporate Shells made an attempt to break records as they began a downward slide around Day 5 and experienced an eventual implosion. The Detroit Grape Chews made a strong showing, but their Midwest Crown rivals the Milwaukee Flamingos managed to sneak into second place

• In the Hot Water division, the Alewife Arsonists and Orlando Business Majors jostled for first place, with the Arsonists eventually taking the division

Runs

• Cold Fire spent most of the season racking up big wins against their Cold Water rivals, and it shows. The Ft. Worth Piano Tuners had only the Delaware Corporate Shells for rivals in their lack of run production, although they managed to pull off at least a few occasional wins, unlike the Shells

• The Jersey OSHA Violations were the only Cold Water team that managed to maintain a positive run differential, while the Elko Astronauts were the only Cold Fire team that ended the season with a negative run differential

• The Long Beach Flightless Birds racked up some monster wins, but in the end their offense ran out of gas, as the Flightless Birds finished last place in Cold Fire
