1870 post-season (division championship series results)

DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES RESULTS (BEST OF SEVEN)
-----
New York def. Philadelphia 4-2
Los Angeles def. Colorado City 4-1

Well, it's a rematch of last year's Daylight Series with the defending champion Gothams taking on the Seraphs from the left coast.

We went 2-1 against them in the regular season for whatever that's worth. Their lineup is pretty potent featuring Mat Johansen, the 21-year old phenom and umm..his 48-year old (yes, I unretired him) father Lars-Erik Johansen who is pretty much the Babe Ruth of this league, except better. After pitching last year for the Gothams, it seems he's been batting 3rd in the New York order this year to end his career as a hitter, rather than a pitcher.

It's important to note that Johansen played for Rio Grande for a year and a season in LA before retiring and then unretiring to finish his career in Washington (where he spent the bulk of it) but then left there, went to Bantam half a season and then after that, came back when New York moved up in the draft to pick up his son, so they could play together.

How's that for fatherly love?

In any case, I have no idea what to predict for this season, so let's just end the suspense.
