10/8/2023 Cash walks off Swingers as winners Norm Cash hit two homers in Game Seven of the 2023 World Series. It was a wild SBL season, and it ended with a wild seven-game series that saw the Swingers come back from a 3-1 hole to win Game Seven thanks to two late homeruns. Salvador Perez's bomb in the 8th tied the game, and Norm Cash led off the 10th with a solo shot, sending the Swingers home with their 5th SBL title, passing the Gaggle for the most since 2008. Congrats to Josh, as well as Ben who's Slugs had another great run and almost took the title. It was a year of much parity, and I look forward to what 2024 will bring!

However, the Swingers clinched the division title with a 9-8 record against the Banana Slugs. The Swingers' offense, led by a run differential of +27, was a key factor in their success. Meanwhile, the Banana Slugs were no slouches either, with a +59 run differential, indicating that their pitching and defense were top-notch. The Central Division: The Glen Gaggle Soars The Central Division saw The Glen Gaggle finish at the top with a 72-58 record. Their +53 run differential and recent form of 6-4 in the last 10 games show that they are a force to be reckoned with. Lake Michigan Mutiny followed closely, just three games behind, making them a team to watch in the playoffs. The East Division: Western Springs Hammers Nail It In the East, the Western Springs Hammers took the division with a 69-61 record. Despite losing two of their last games, they managed to stay ahead of the County Cork Fighting Irish by just one game. The Fighting Irish, however, are on a two-game winning streak and have won 7 of their last 10, making them a dark horse in the upcoming playoffs. Final Thoughts As we gear up for the playoffs, one thing is clear: in a league where the competition is this fierce, anything can happen.
