April highlights:
- On opening day the Time Consumers beat the Two Starts on a score of 25 to 19. That's not the game glitching out or anything, as I've never seen a score like that. Just a freak opening day. Cliff Lee went 2.2 IP, Josh Johnson 3.1. Dusty Baker of the Two Starts ended up using his entire bullpen in the game, going so far as to having outfielder Angel Pagan pitch the ninth inning (he gave up 4 ER).
- Jacoby Ellsbury (Kev Bombs) charged the mound, and fought J.A. Happ (MoonSchatz). It was bad enough both players received 6 game suspensions.
- Michael Pineda (Kev Bombs) partially tore his UCL, and is out for the year. Brett Myers (Kaiden's Krew) was the only other major injury, spraining his elbow and landing on the DL for 5 weeks.
- Carlos Gonzalez (Two Starts) won player of the month, and Justin Verlander (Ham Sandwiches) won pitcher of the month. Gonzalez has a Bonds-ian 13 home runs in April, hitting .379. Verlander is 4-0, with a 1.87 ERA, striking out 8.6/9 per nine. His biggest win of the season was against the Kingslayers, allowing only Grady Sizemore double and a Kendrys Morales single over 8 innings.
- Cut off in the standings image is the leaders in saves. The Killer Pandas' Stephen Strasburg leads the league with 10 already, followed by the Ham Sandwiches' Justin Masterson with 9.
