12/8/04- With 18 games left to
go, it's still anyone's guess which four teams will make the postseason
though it's a safe bet that the Northside Hitmen will be one of them.
The Hitmen will be anxious to defend their four straight IAL championships.
Here's an interesting piece of trivia... I knew Chuck
Lucas and his Hitmen have been pretty formidable over the years but do you
know when the last time the Hitmen have not made the Illowa playoffs?
The last time Chuck has watched the postseason from the sidelines was 1986.
Pretty impressive.

Pujols: Triple Crown Threat?
The Triple Crown is looking
more within Twin City Thunderchicken outfielder Albert Pujols'
grasp. With 18 games left, Pujols has a comfortable lead in
batting average and rbis. He trails by one homerun and the
race is a crowded one with 4 other players within two homeruns of leaders
Carlos Delgado and Alex Rodriguez.
