Brad Stark’s Portland Microbrewers take a swig of World Series victory

pm

Here’s a toast to Brad Stark and his Portland Microbrewers of the Boys of Summer APBA League.  After sweeping my Urbana Locomotives in the NLCS, they went on to win the BoS World Series by winning four games of six against Stray Corrado’s Chicago Nine.  This was Brad’s third time to the dance and his first World Series win! 

It was a long battle all year for some but both Brad and Stray had their divisions wrapped up early.  Both teams won 98 in the regular season.  The Chicago Nine ended up 17 games up on their nearest opponent and the Microbrewers, well, they dominated with a 23 game margin.  Congrats to both on a great season!

Not only did Brad and Stray do well with their great teams but they are good asset to the league.  Through the three years of the league history, they have helped BBW newbies like myself with advice and tips. 

The Boys of Summer APBA League will soon be drafting for their fourth season soon. 

Congrats again, Brad!

I am an IT consultant by day and an APBA media mogul by night. My passions are baseball (specifically Illini baseball), photography and of course, APBA. I have been fortunate to be part of the basic game Illowa APBA League since 1980 as well as the BBW Boys of Summer APBA League since 2014. I am slogging through a 1966 NL replay and hope to finish before I die.

  1. In many ways, it was the most fitting match-up, although the playoffs was loaded with some really tough & talented teams. Also, I agree these two have a lot of knowledge of the game.

  2. Congratulations to the champions. Is there a digital trophy they can proudly display?

  3. CONGRATULATIONS! !!!
