Boys of Summer Presents...
"The Amazing April Tournament"
Not to be outdone by March, the month of April decided to have it's own tournament of 64 teams to battle each other.
I placed the teams in their Pythagorean Record's winning pct orders, so #1 overall faces #64 overall,
and etc. Plus not every team is a playoff team, my Tournament of Champions tournament was mainly built of division championships at least, on the exception of maybe 3 teams. This one has a few more than that, 2012 Los Angeles Angels, 1962 Los Angeles Dodgers, 1993 San Francisco Giants just to name a few, than there is other teams people may shake their heads at, the 1998 Cubs, sure they don't jump out as a great team, but they are the only Chicago Cubs team to win consecutive division titles in it's club's history after the LCS period started, and first since the first decade of the 1900's at least. I just placed the teams in the brackets from the orders, and that's how I came up with these match-ups.
So this is what went down in Day 1
