Checking In from Nashville

Owen here...just wanted to pop on the blog and give you a quick standings update while I'm away.  Let me just say that it is scorching hot in Nashville, Tennessee this weekend with temperatures at 95+.  It's going to be a little warm in a coat and tie for the wedding I'm attending.

I was able to listen to just a little bit of last night's game, and it seemed as if David Holmberg was in complete control.  Always nice to see (or hear) a pitcher who is just dominating.

Anyhow, here's an update on the playoff race entering today's games with 14 remaining in the first half:
