The 2016 Benchwarmer Bash

Federation Championships - Lou Gehrig Federation

The Benchwarmer Bash begins with Federation Championships.  The 49 leagues are divided into 8 Federations (see the breakdown on the Leagues page).  We've got a mix of Federations with six leagues and some with seven - 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. Wild Card One: Imperial Point, They Might Be Giants - Power Index: 1 - Anthony Citarella
  2. Wild Card Two: Kenesaw, Commissioners - Power Index: 2 - Sherman Wan
  3. Minnie & Paul Champion: Tonga - Power Index: 3 - Tom Twomey
  4. K Street Champion: New Jersey - Power Index: 4 - Tom Twomey
  5. They Might Be Giants Champion: California - Power Index: 6 - David Henning
  6. Geek Pride Champion: Loco - Power Index: 11 - Michael Quinn
  7. Commissioners Champion: Midwest - Power Index: 22 - David Henning
  8. Grand Slam Champion: Stillwater - Power Index: 28 - Michael Quinn
