NL Wild Card Race

In the NL Wild Card Race it is quite a bit tighter with the top handful of teams. Leading the NLWC is the San Diego Zonkeys (56-45). The team leads over the #3 spot by 3.0 games. Currently in 2nd place in the NLWC is the Charlotte Heavy Petting Zoo (54-47), who's 9 game winning streak has not only propelled them into the #2 WC spot but also back into the division race where they are only down 5.0 games to the Little Rock Jaeger Bombs (59-42).

In third place in the Wild Card Race and only 1 game back of a potential WC spot are the Portland Hippies (53-48) and the Fresno Griz (53-48). Both teams are over 10 games out of their respective divisions and baring either a collapse by a division rival or a very hot streak the teams only playoff hopes seem to be in the WC race. Behind both Portland and Fresno is the Dover Devils (49-52) who, even being 3 games below .500, are only 5.0 games out of the Wild Card race. And last, but not least, the Minnesota Conspiracy (46-55) are only 8.0 games out. There are a few teams who are more then eight games out, but somewhat close in the Florida FlyTekks (45-56) and the Pittsburgh Pranksters (45-56) both 9.0 games out.

Good Luck to the NL as the season continues into the last 60 games!
