We reach the half-way point in the season, and in Division One at least, things remain largely open - on three of the 14 teams are more than seven points out of a playoff spot, and as we've seen, that can easily change in only a round or two. This week, we see the second whitewash of the season, and as a result, there's a chance at the top of the standings. Quick results are below, details, league table, etc. after the jump. Division Two to follow whenever I get the info.

DIVISION ONE
Baked 7, Funny Team Name 3

7-2 Offsuiters 2, at Lady Gaga Regatta 7

Blonde Streaks 6, The Fighting Amish 4
Streaks trailed on offense but a 2.13 ERA and 1.00 WHIP helped them roar back in pitching, to take the week's closest game. Teixeira and Holliday combined for nine HR and 19 RBI, while Sanchez got a W + 12 K. For the Amish, Floyd won twice, and Nunez three Sv.
Moving on Uptons 10, Confederate Generals 0

Balco's Boys 3, Sofa King Juiced 6
Hitting was evenly split, each side winning two - HR were tied at 10. Balco's had Player of the Week in Quentin, who has six HR and 11 RBI. But Sofa took pitching, behind Sabathia (two Wins, 11 strikeouts) and Lincecum (Win + 10 K's). Wagner saved three for Balco's.
