Two ways to read the top, one way to read the bottom
Luxemburg Brewers 10-2 in the league and 15-7 overall, plus 73, winners of four straight. Cold Spring Rockies 9-3 and 16-8, plus 99. St. Nicholas Nicks 7-4 and 10-6, plus 29. Pearl Lake Lakers 6-5 and 9-10-1, plus 18. Watkins Clippers 6-5 and 7-9, plus 33. Eden Valley Hawks 1-10 and 3-12, minus 90. St. Augusta Gussies 1-11 and 1-18, minus 162.
Luxemburg lead on record and Cold Spring lead on runs, twenty-six clear of them, which is the sort of gap that decides a state tournament seeding rather than a pennant.
At the other end the Gussies have won one game in nineteen and are 162 runs down. That is a season somebody is still driving to.
Standings on High Cheese come out of the games themselves, so a table this detailed is a consequence rather than a weekly job.
