On May 9, 2012, the top two teams in the current league standings will go head to head, as
Emerson and
Midland Park meet. The Cavaliers currently hold a 0.50-game lead over the Panthers for first place.
This could be a critical week for Emerson, which holds a 0.50-game lead over Midland Park for the league's top spot in the standings.
Park Ridge boasted the best pitching over the past week, holding opponents to the league's fewest hits and issuing the fewest walks. The Owls have given up a mere 134 hits on the year in addition to compiling 84 strikeouts.
Peter Masterson is the leader in that category with 31 Ks on the season.
