Crows, Huskies & Lions Etch Names In MMDA Recordbook

The MMDA recordbook runs back through 2002, the so-called Internet era for our league.  

With offense down across the league, no team made a run at any of the team batting records. This year's Wilmington Razorbacks led the MMDA with 928 runs scored, but they would have needed to score an additional 89 runs to crack the top 10. At their run-scoring rate, Wilmington would have required 16 more games to score those 89 runs.

A number of teams broke into the top 10 for various pitching categories, however. The staffs for Mohawk Valley, Northeast and Spokane made multiple appearances on the updated pitching leaderboards, while four other clubs made single appearances.

Of course, when compared with the current league average, none of these performances are as impressive (in context) as some of the earlier feats. Here are the teams that cracked the pitching top 10s:
