Jeter at SS & Ellis at 2B are the bomb. Martinez at C drops team

This is a matchup of the top 2 run
producing teams in the AL. Oak Hills went an amazing 10-4 against
Anaheim in the regular season. We think starting pitching is much
more valuable than relief pitching, we'll see. |

Karma rules. If we were to
use, "Just the facts ma'am", we would pick Culver City in 5. Seal
Beach's SP is just not very good and Culver City's 4 RH starters gives
it the edge. SB's Luck factor has to be overcome. |
