Round 2 Recap
Lynx vs Bombers- Lynx certainly did not disappoint in its first tournament game on the Elite level, stunning a solid Bombers team convincingly 9-4. Bravo pitched a great game and is emerging as a good enough pitcher on the Elite level. ThatMan and Swift helped the offense out enough, as manager Ewade successfully notched his first ever elite tournament win.
Final Score: Lynx 9, Bombers 4

Insanity vs Empire
- In an unfortunate turn of events, 2 Insanity players lagged out in the top of the first of the Insanity Empire game. The GMs were unable to restart the game seeing as the game itself was not bugged. They played on, and Curtis92 then bugged out on a low curveball. This 2v5 game was unfair from the start as Empire scored 14 runs in the first inning and never looked back.
Final Score: Empire 16, Insanity 8
Player of the Game: D1nonly2
FlightAL vs Rage
- Dr.Death and SlayerxX put out a solid pitcher's duel in the best game of the night. Unfortunately, a late FlightAL grandslam put Rage away. Up 4-2 late in the game, Rage gave up a grandslam and let the game slip away. Dr.Death had an all around game and looks to be returning to his MVP form.
Final Score: FlightAL 6, Rage 4
Player of the Game: Dr.Death
Hybrids vs FlightNL
- Hybrids had complete control of this game from the start, but a LordSmrf lagout in a 4-0 game in the 4th caused the game to unwind. FlightNL capitalized and won 9-7 leading us to a round 3 Flight vs Flight matchup. Hybrids former manager Toyboy played on Pesto/Lord Smrf and had 4 homeruns on the night combined in a losing effort. This tournament loss marked the end of Hybrids, and the RBO community tips its cap to Toyboy for a great effort against a very good team.
Final Score: FlightNL 9, Hybrids 7
Player of the Game: Toyboy
Round 3 Recap
Lynx vs Empire- Empire dominated Lynx in round 3, scoring 14 runs off of Bravo and holding Lynx to 3. KMAN pitched 4 innings of 3 run ball and Fire closed the door with 2 innings of scoreless baseball. Homeruns by D1nonly2 and Big123 off of Bravo put the game out of reach. ThatMan homered for Lynx. KMan helped his own cause with a 3-run homerun of his own early in the ballgame.
Final Score: Empire 14, Lynx 3
Player of the Game: KMAN
FlightNL vs FlightAL
- Nos was a 1 man recking crew in Round 3 as he was responsible for 3 homeruns and 10 RBI in a 13-5 rout of FlightAL. Smokeout pitched solid and has found a stretch of consistency. FlightNL is the first team to get to Dr.Death in this tournament as the normally shutdown-type ace surrendered a tournament high in runs. Nos caught fire and carried NL to the finals.
Final Score: Flight NL 13, Flight AL 5
Player of the Game: Nos
