Second-Place Showdown

In honor of the 43rd President of the United States (heh, heh, heh), The Al Gore Cup is a forum for teams that finished second and most likely feel that they're more deserving than all of the other first-place teams to be in the championship bracket.

 

Teams are seeded 1-4 based on regular season records and play a best-of-seven semifinal round followed by another seven game series to crown the winner.

 

The winner receives a bonus of 1 million Benchwarmer Bucks.  The runner-up gets 500,000.

 

The 2013 Entrants (in order of seeding):

  • Detroit (87-63)
  • Boar's (85-65)
  • Oakland Athletic (83-67)
  • Springfield (81-69)

 

Semifinals - Springfield vs. Detroit; Oakland Athletic vs. Boar's

 

Finals - Springfield vs. Boar's - Springfield won season series 8-4
