Default Shocker in the UK...

Birmingham, UK - In a shocker today the Spitfires were beat 5-3 at home vs team 797. "Wow, just wow." is all starter Daniel Alvin could muster. Alvin was selected as the #1 starter for the playoffs and had only given up 4 runs over his last 10 games. Rumor was rampant that DornCounty the evil GM of the franchise had ordered Dan to throw the game for the sake of the lucrative 3rd home game. "No Comment", was all that Dorn would say on the issue.

LOL. Actually I'm sorta surprised more teams don't do that, throw out your worst pitcher on sleepwalking for a full game against an NPC team. Lots of XP and an extra home game.

This has been our modus operandi from season 1 and the way finished off our stadium early. That and winning a bunch of championships.
