On the Diamond Vol. 19 2000

[bschr682]

Pitcher of the sim:
SP Paul Kimzey
0-0 with a 1.12 ERA and 7 K's in 8.0 IP. In probably his last game as a Crusader, Kimzey pitched brilliantly. Unfortunately the rest of the staff was obliterated.

Batter of the sim:
CF Ryan Sittler
.409 Avg in 22 AB's. Sittler was the only Crusader's batter to hit over .300.

As they had all season long, Madison spanked the Crusaders and sent them packing from the playoffs in 5 games. The offense couldn't hit and the staff got shelled. Can't win a series when those two things happen. It is unclear whether the team will be stripped down and rebuilt or gear up for one more run as it is currently constitued with a few minor changes.
