The 2015 Benchwarmer Bash

Federation Championships - Hank Aaron Federation

The Benchwarmer Bash begins with Federation Championships.  The 44 leagues are divided into 8 Federations (see the breakdown on the Leagues page).  We've got a mix of Federations with five leagues and some with six - the league champion teams automatically advance to the Federation Championships, and we add enough wild cards to make a field of eight teams.

 

Teams are seeded based on their federation power index.  However, in matchups between wild cards and league champs, the league champion will have home field advantage.

 

Seeding - Federation Championship:

  1. Shadowball Champion: Las Vegas - Power Index: 1 -- Jim Sowerby
  2. Anchorman Champion: Brick - Power Index 2 -- Tom Twomey
  3. Fenway Fenatics Champion: Centauri - Power Index: 3 -- David Henning
  4. Bronx Bombers Champion: Chicago - Power Index: 4 - Michael Quinn
  5. Wild Card One - Utopia, Fenway Fenatics - Power Index: 5 -- Tom Twomey
  6. Wild Card Two: Las Vegas, Anchorman - Power Index: 6 -- Ken DeGroot
  7. Hall of Fame Champion: Boar's - Power Index: 11 -- Tom Twomey
  8. American Association Champion: Buckeye - Power Index 19 -- David Henning
