Although highly unlikely, mathematically the Railroaders could end up in a tie with the Oilers for 4th place. The Railroaders would have to win out on the rest of the season and the Oilers would have to lose all their remaining games. With that being said, the tiebreaker for 4th place would be the head-to-head season record between the teams. The game tonight will determine that fate.
Even under the improbable scenario explained above, we should be playing for pride at this point in the season. Let’s beat the Oilers one more time and keep the hope alive for a Round One Home game next Monday!
There are 3 more days worth of regular season home games to play; tonight with the Oilers, Wednesday a doubleheader with the Chiefs, and finally on Friday with the 1st place Hoppers. Our current homestanding record is 10-8 compared to our 3-15 road record. Let’s keep our home record on the positive side and finish off the season on an upbeat note!
Hope you guys are doing well. This is Phil Owens I really enjoyed my time helping with the games. GOOD LUCK RAILROADERS

ReplyDeleteGreat inning Fulton! Let's keep up that momentum.
ReplyDeleteOld Railroaders are never forgotten!!! I was high bidder for Reed's jersey a couple of summers ago and gave it to my grand-daughter. It is her favorite PJ shirt. An often reminder of a great Railroader back here in Kentucky. Hope he is doing well.
