Recorded to the end
The results run game by game to August 2024: Lansdale Cannoneers 7 Philadelphia Red Sox 2, Padres 8 Harleysville Colts 7, Conshy Marlins 4 Philadelphia Red Sox 3, Padres 14 Quaker City Comets 0. Two of those are against clubs from another league entirely.
Playing and recording interleague fixtures against Bux-Mont sides is what a Philadelphia league does when the region has more clubs than any one competition can hold — and it is why the notice at the top now sends players to Bux-Mont and South Jersey. On High Cheese a final entered once becomes the box score, the standings line and the season record together, so a league's last summer is as findable as its first.
