Last Place Update - October 6

Finally, we have a winner. Congrats to the 2015 MLB Kings of the Cellar Champion, the 63-99 Philadelphia Phillies! They beat Cellar tease, 64-98 Cincinnati Reds by a game. The Phillies went 2-2 since the last update, while Cincy broke their 13 game losing streak by going 1-3, just enough to get denied their share of the beer.

As much fun as we have with the updates, it's important to remember that the Last Place Updates are a tongue-in-cheek look at teams with the worst records in the featured sports on this blog. However, only a tiny percent of the population is good enough to even be a professional athlete. It's also important to remember and appreciate that it takes that special kind of athlete to earn the privilege to play for a professional sports team, whether it's for only a few games or a long Hall of Fame career. The rest of us can only dream of the life these people live, regardless of how good or bad their team is.

Hats off to Major League Baseball for another good regular season. Bring on the playoffs!!!
