August was a decent month for your Istanbul Bosphorus who closed the month going 13-14, with a overall record of 57-74. They currently sit in 3rd place in the Burt (6 games behind division leader Cairo) and 2 games behind Manama for the Wildcard. As Istanbul fans know, the Bosphorus have never made the playoffs in their 4 year history.
32 year old CF Héctor Correa leads the team in average, at .257. He has a state line of .257/.380/.372 with 10 home runs. 36 year old C Luis Miguel Carrillo with 27. Unfortunately it seems to be HR or bust for Carrillo this season. He's batting .194/.337/.418.
Bernardino 'Two Shoes' Bertoletti is 5 games better in the win department then than 3 others who are tied at 7. Bertoletti has a 4.77 ERA over 175.1 innings pitched this season.
"We are in a 'do whatever it takes to make the playoffs' mode. We know our fans are looking for some post season action" said the GM. "While the record may state otherwise, we've had a decent season so far. Only 6 games out of division lead and 2 from wildcard." With just over a month left in the season, every game counts for Istanbul.
With September meaning so much, I hope to have a small report for each sim.
