Announcing the 1993 CFOD All-Star Selections.  Players were evaluated on
their first half performance by the following formulas:

Hitter value = (OBP+SBSLG)*(AB+HB+IW+BB)*0.025+(RBI+RUNS)*.09
Where SBSLG = Slugging percentage with net steals factored in.

Pitcher Value = 2.5625*(WINS/4.8+SAVES/4.8+IP/107.5*(4.24/ERA+1.447/WHIP)

The top two position players with at least 40 games at the position and
the top five starters and relievers from each conference were selected.  
However, to make sure that each team had at least one represenative, the
person most likely to have made the all-star team had they been a little
better was chosen for the following teams:  Zippys, Dogs, Brouhaha, Piazzas.
Everyone else had guys who qualified normally.

The game will be played next Thursday once again on beautiful Mosher field.
Mark Langston of the Coneheads and Dwight Gooden of the 'Topes were the
best starters in their conference and will start the all-star game for their
respective teams.  Tom Henke of the Thunder and Brian Harvey of the 'Topes 
were the best relievers in their conference and will close out the games,
no matter what.

CFOD 1993 ALL-STAR GAME

MOSHER STADIUM -- An exciting end to the 1993 All-Star Game.  The first  
half of the game was all RY all-stars.  In the 2nd, Rickey Henderson
hit a 2 run double off Dwight Gooden to knock in pinch hitter Incaviglia 
and Jay Bell.  In the 5th, Frank Thomas hit a 2-run tater off Mulholland. 
The MK all-stars scored once in the 8th inning, but in the top of the 9th,
off Thunder closer Tom Henke, Bobby Bonilla hit a 3-run tater to quickly
even things up.  A scoreless bottom of the 9th would mean the all-star
game would go into extra innings.  No reserves were left.  It was a battle
between the top two dominant closers in the game, Brian Harvey and Tom
Henke.  Henke recovered from a shaky 9th to pitch a scoreless 10th.  However,
things heated up in the bottom of the 10th, as the bases start to load up.
Against Harvey, Lenny Dykstra hit a single.  But with the speedy
Rickey Henderson on base, there was the possibility of a game winner
right there.  Henderson decided (er, *I* decided :) ) to try and win the
game right then and there, and the MK outfielder who picked up the ball
decided to make it a play at the plate.  And the result was....SAFE! 
Rickey Henderson scores, to win it in the bottom of the 10th.  Henke
avenges his 9th inning humiliation to win the 1993 All-Star Game, and
Rickey Henderson went 4-5 with 2 RBI and a run scored to be the 1993
CFOD All-Star MVP.

Week 9 begins on Monday.  At the start of those games, no more players
may be signed as free agents and kept at the end of the year, so if you are
going to be making any signings from the free agent pool with an eye towards
next year, you should make them now.
