Not so Fast with Those Golf Clubs

It appears that I may have put the grave stone on the minor league season a bit too hastily. A few weeks ago, I indicated that the play-offs were not possible for any of the Astros' affiliates. Admittedly, I didn't look at all of the standings, I incorrectly assumed that a record right around .500 meant no play-offs.

Well, I am happy to announce that I was wrong: the JetHawks and Valley Cats are in the thick of a pennant race.

In the California League's second half, Lancaster is 25 and 27. However, with 18 games left, they are only three games out of first place.

In the New York Penn League, Tri-City is 29 and 29. They are in second place 1 1/2 games out with 18 to play.
