The Results

Ryan Howard used his superior firepower to outpace Bill Madlock for the pennant, Robin Yount finishing a distant third. Tom Daly parlayed a strong finish with a final game loss by Joe Kuhel to tie him for fourth place. Despite leading all teams in batting average and having a positive run differential, Dale Mitchell came up short, finishing seventh and failing to make the cut. We say goodbye to him, Schulte, and Tommy Leach.
