Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
1	1	2	Weymouth Shaddupu 4-0-0		This winning streak to start the season should come as no suprise to Weymouth fans: Since 2014, Shaddupu has only lost one match up through the first four weeks of the season. Week 5 Match Up: San Juan
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
2	2	1	Dublin Snake Chasers 2-0-2		It's not pretty, but Dublin is refusing to lose. Week 5 Match Up: Tokyo
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
3	4	10	Tijuana Hispanics 3-1-0		Tijuana hasn't had a start to the season better than this since 2005 when they started off 4-0. The last time they started 3-1 was 2014. In both seasons they ended the regular season 10-9-3 overall. Seems like too much of a coincidence to not take seriously. Week 5 Match Up: Quebec City
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
4	3	3	San Juan Guerites 3-1-0		San Juan's offense was non-existent for the first half of Week 4 against the Doggs and by the time they noticed it was too late. Week 5 Match Up: Weymouth
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
5	7	7	Rio de Janeiro Cristos 2-1-1		A matchup with the Japanese robots couldn't have come at a better time for the disabled Cristos. Week 5 Match Up: Santo Domingo
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
6	8	5	Las Vegas Doggs 1-1-2		Vegas defeated San Juan this past week just to remind them that they're still their little brother. Week 5 Match Up: San Fernando Valley
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
7	9	7	Rakeville Rockets 1-2-1		19 home runs and they still lose R and RBI. With their current strategy, the Rockets can easily win K's each week, but their pitching staff is all but guaranteed to lose the other 4 categories at this rate. Think Thames could pitch too? Week 5 Match Up: Bridgewater
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
8	5	6	Santo Domingo All-Star Factory 1-3-0		Record vs French speakers 8-2. Record vs Spanish speakers 9-18. We're not completely sure what this proves, feel free to leave your theories in the comments. Week 5 Match Up: Rio de Janeiro
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
9	6	4	Quebec City Piglets 1-3-0		Thanks to some last minute heroics by Anthony Rendon, final score Quebec City 4, Dublin 5. Too bad moral victories don't count as much as actual wins would, something Quebec City can't seem to do anymore. Week 5 Match Up: Tijuana
Current Rank	Last Week	Pre Season	Team		Notes
10	12	11	Bridgewater Weasels 1-3-0		Well well well, look who remembered how to win. When's the parade scheduled? Week 5 Match Up: Rakeville
