American League Division Series
THUNDER BAY, NJ
-- Bad blood may spill over into this series as the Rockers,
sour over losing Adam Mellhuse to over usage, will take on the
Jersey Damage Inc. Rocker management may be pondering whether
to stay in the TBBL or not, but will surely have a tough battle in
front of them. Jersey meanwhile is just happy to be here. |
