Power Rankings - 5th July to 11th July 2021

Withe table well and truly shaken up by Coronavirus and the new “points per game” system, who were the week’s top performers? 1st Kouvolan Pallonlyöjat Last week’s number 2 goes one better and became number 1 with wins across the board. KPL are one of the teams to greatly benefit from the new points per game system, catapulting them into 2nd in the table. This boost clearly gave the players some further encouragement as they beat Joensuu, Sotkamo and Kankaanpää. Also of note was the emergence of 17 year old pitcher Elias Pitkänen, who started the season with local rivals Hamina.  2nd Vimpelin Veto Vimpeli dusted off their loss to Tahko last week and followed that up with some solid wins over JymyJussit and PattU to challenge for the top of the table. Vimpeli’s success rate at moving the point runner in both games was over 60% and their offence seems to be on fine form. The announcement of the Itä v Länsi players sees Vimpeli well represented for the west, with the maximum nu...

5 reasons to follow Pesäpallo if you are a baseball fan

Image
Pesäpallo  - so they finally jazzed up baseball! For years I have watched and followed MLB, but I went in search of something a little more exciting and discovered Pesäpallo, Finland’s version of the game. After a number of years watching Pesäpallo I can firmly say that I am a convert! Whilst I still watch baseball closely, Pesäpallo is my favourite sport. Let me tell you 5 reasons why I think a baseball fan should consider following Pesäpallo too. 5 reasons to follow Pesäpallo Baseball can be slow and uneventful - Pesäpallo is fast paced and exciting Have you ever watched an MLB game and thought that the game lacked pace? 3 easy outs and the inning is over? Well Pesäpallo could be the antipode for this. Whilst in MLB an average on base percentage of 0.400 is seen as pretty good, a 40% success rate is Pesäpallo is seen as low. There is no waiting around for people to step up to the plate, no lengthy delays when the manager goes to the bullpen to change the pitcher - ...

The roundup - 2nd to 9th August 2020

Dahlström scored 5 RBI against JoMa, but the reigning champions had the edge The big stories Game manager for KPL hit in the head during Joensuu game During the most anticipated game of the week, KPL’s game manager Iiro Haimi suffered a serious head injury during the game against Joensuu at Kerubi stadium that brought play to a complete standstill. During one of Joensuu’s innings, JoMa captain Aleksi Rautiainen reached out and swung at an intentionally bad pitch, only to see it strike Haimi behind his left ear. Haimi managed to walk off the field of play after initial treatment, before being taken to North Kyle Hospital for X-rays and a CT scan. Haimi was later discharged from hospital and advised to rest. As a result, Haimi will miss KPL’s next match against IPV and Anssi Lammila will take up the reigns.  I sincerely hope Iiro recovers well and my thoughts are with him at this time. Sami Partanen plays his 600th game in Superpesis There are not many players who can boast a...
