The Heavyweight Championship standings have been updated on the sidebar. The Milwaukee Brewers are the current champions. The Mets have a large lead in the standings, thanks to a six-week streak from mid-June to the end of July when they won the final game of every series they played. The streak included a 3-1 victory on June 29 over the Yankees that eliminated the American League from any further championship bouts for the rest of the regular season.
