The North once again took the All-Star game that is 3 out of 4. The North won 7-4 in a fairly good game. So you now must ask yourself this question.

Is The North Better than the South.

1- The North won Interleague play 17-12, granted there is still a few games to be played, The South still can't win the battle.

2- The North won the All-Star game without 2 players who were selected to be on the 2nd team. Granted the South didn't have exactly their best product on show, they still got beat.

3- The North has Hicktown, like them or not they are as good as they come.

4- Mayhem has stepped up the last few weeks. They are no longer a joke. This team is no easy win anymore.

5- Top to bottom when you look at teams in each division, they appear very equal, When you look at matchups. Hicktown-Balls Deep, Holey Balls- Soco, Woodcocks-Highjackers, Mayhem-Green Machine. They all are very equal, but in the end the North reigns Superior.

6- What is killing the South right now is the Highjackers, they are and should be a 12-8 to 15-5 team.

7- The North has better pitching, you can say look at numbers, and if you do that's fine here is my take. The North allows 4.46 RAPG while The South has a near identical 4.48. So you say they are almost the same, but here is where it gets good. Hicktown has scored 136 Runs, The entire South has scored 187. The North all together has scored 261, 74 more runs total. 

8- The North has Joey Reid (7-0), Chris Beets (6-0), those 2 guys alon make up a record of 13-0. Where the Souths top 2 pitchers according to votes is Grabb (1-4), Hunziker (4-1). I know some guys will say well Grabb isn't our top 2 pitchers well according to stats it is Vacarro at (4-1) as well. That makes 8-2 vs 13-0. From there The North still has strength in Pitching, Medina and Richardson are no slouches.

That's just my take. Let me hear yours
