Week 18 scoring update

The head-to-head regular season is over, and the eight playoff spots have been claimed. Pitch You Blockhead earned the No. 6 seed over Hammerin Hank by virtue of a 74-point advantage in the overall point standings. And the Triple-A's claimed the eighth and final playoff berth by a nine-point overall margin over the Arbitration Losers.

As the top 2 seeds, the Fresh Fish and Misfits simply need to post wins either in Week 19 or Week 20 to advance to the semifinals. As for the matchups between the Rookies-Pitch You Blockhead and BAWG-Halladay Road, it basically becomes a two-week game -- the team the score the most points over the next two weeks advances to the semifinals.

Meanwhile, the Arbitration Losers and Pickle Bugs take a two-week hiatus before re-engaging for the consolation title.
