Over halfway through the first round of the tournament officially. The Braves found their first win of the tournament thanks in large part to Fred Mcgriff. The Phillies were able to pick up their second win in a row helping them climb up into the playoffs as of now. 4 teams are now 2-2 which will make the last three weeks match ups interesting to see who plays who and how those game will change the rankings in the end.
