MLB Tournament of Champions: Regular Season Round 4

I hope you all had a blessed Easter! Normally, I would have run this piece yesterday, but the holiday and the schedule allowed me to push it back a day.

We have a number of teams in pretty good shape thus far, but none better than the blessed 2016 Cubs, who have won seven in a row and boast the best record in the Tournament to date at 9-1. Four other teams sit at 7-3 through three rounds of action. On the opposite end, our current worst team is the '71 Pirates, who have just one win to their name, due to a combination of a bye and facing the aforementioned Cubs.

We've got another doubleheader in this go around, and I was also forced to build in another scheduling quirk in this round with a wraparound weekend series, hence the one day delay. I'll have a couple more of those built in over the next few weeks, but I think once we're past the first week of May I'm done with them.
