And Now For Something Completely Different

I don't imagine there are very many Kansas City T-Bones or Schaumburg Flyers on anyone's fantasy rosters (they're both Northern League teams), but on the small chance that you're in a minor league fantasy league, you'll be happy (horrified?) to know that the fate of your players' stats are in the hands of two video game players, as the first two innings of the T-Bones v. Flyers July 16 matchup will be a virtual simulation:
The first two innings of the July 16th game between the Kansas City T-Bones and the Schaumburg Flyers will be played virtually.

Equipped with Microsoft Xbox game controllers instead of baseball gloves and bats, two video gamers will climb into recliner chairs around home plate at CommunityAmerica Ballpark and slug it out on the park’s 16- by 24-foot video screen.

Their scores from playing two innings of MVP Baseball 2005 on an Xbox will stand when the T-Bones and Flyers take the field to finish the last seven innings of the game.


Folks, I don't make this stuff up, I just report it. My fantasy recommendation: bench your pitchers.
