          The Bottom Feeder Open - playing for pride and a few bucks. 
            
          A small taste of post season baseball as the third and fourth place 
          teams get a chance to play a few more games.  Teams are ranked 
          1-8, based on season record and play a 3-game quarterfinal series.  
          Winners are re-seeded and play a 3-game semifinal. 
            
          The two remaining teams square off in a best-of-five finals.
