SNECAA's First Phantom Game - Faith Tab 1 - AAH 0

League lineup has been great this year. Most SNECAA coaches report scores through it, and many do batting stats of various kinds. And lots of you have used it at least to check scores and standings, so much so that our league lineup site has received over 1300 unique visits this season.

But we just discovered something league lineup can't do... handle tiebreakers. There were three pairs of teams tied this year in our final standings. These should be settled by head to head results, but two of these pairs were posted incorrectly in the standings. So far, the only way we have been able to get the proper order in the standings was to create a "phantom" game between Faith Tabernacle and Against All Hope, with a 1-0 score in favor of Faith Tab.

We haven't given up on fixing this, but meanwhile, at least there shouldn't be any confusion about seeding for the playoffs. We apologize, especially to the great guys at Against All Hope for the extra loss

Urgent Prayer Request from NPAG Coach Mark Tufano

One of our beloved fathers, friends, leaders, and coaches has been suddenly diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. His name is Robert Irace. He is the father of our 3rd baseman Alexander and another injured player Corey. He is 52 yrs young and has served faithfully as a pastor and elder at our church. They have given him a diagnosis of incurable and inoperable. We do not agree in Jesus name!! We are believing and declaring in faith that God is able and God is willing to heal completely and miraculously!!! I am asking you all to stand with us fervently for Robert and his family. Thank you.
