Now we come down the stretch! We here at The Watch would like to extend our appreciation/apologies to the ups and downs. Here is the penultimate edition before the winners(?) are announced.The Walkoff Watch Terminology
balkoff When a pitcher balks in the winning run.
derpoff When a pitcher walks in the winning run, hits a batter with the bases full, or the winning run scores due to a wild pitch or error.
200-proof walkoff When the home team scores in the bottom of a previous inning to extend the game and then scores with a walkoff in a subsequent inning.
pimpoff When the home team scores a walkoff following the visiting team tying the game to cause extra innings (or more extra innings) or scoring what would have been the winning run if the home team hadn’t responded.

Penultimate Ed. Team and Player Highlights
- Jacksonville (10-8) managed to get in 4 walkoffs in 10 days going 2-2. Impressive. Charlotte (7-7) went 2-1, but I think they had a series with Jacksonville so, well, we repeat ourselves…
- Oof, Atlantic City (2-8)…only 32 1-run games this season but a 7-25 (.219) record.
- Jacksonville’s 4 walkoffs gave time for Isoruko Takimoto and Pepe Aragón space to join the lead pack in the Silver Atlas race with their 3rd on the year.
- Madison’s (8-9) Clint Thomas made his move to the top of the Silver Goat standings but Boise’s (6-9) Mario Santos had at least one more in him to take sole control of the chase.
