1946 Red Sox Champions
I had the 1946 team as the 6th seed in the Red Sox bracket. Fairly surprised they won and are moving on to the big Red Sox v. Yankees Final.
No surprise Ted Williams lead the 1946 offensive attack. Dave Ferris (2-1, 2.03 ERA), Tex Hughson (2-0, 2.48 ERA) and Mickey Harris (2-0, 1.38 ERA) all pitched excellently as did 4th starter Joe Dobson (1-0, 3.38 ERA). They will have their work cut out as they now face Roger Maris and his 12 home runs in 19 games. Hope he is due for a cool down.

The 1946 team has really been a balanced attach offensively and hasn't relied on Williams too much (yet). Whether they can limit Maris and slow down Mantle as he heats up will be seen...
