Winning by one, repeatedly
The league publishes no game results. The aggregate tells a specific story about the Atwater Chuckers: 13-6 overall, and a run differential of plus 3.
Nineteen games and a three-run margin across all of them means this club has won a great many one-run games, which is either a very good bullpen or a great deal of luck, and the difference between those two only shows up in September.
Norway Lake-Sunburg at 2-11 and minus 25 is the plainer story.
High Cheese scores the game at the field, offline if the signal drops, and posts the box score when the book is finalized, so a plus 3 across nineteen games is nineteen games somebody can read.
