The World Series for 1998B was marked with subpar performances by both participants. In this injury marred, best players sitting week, the Men of LA pulled out their 2nd Championship and first in over 4 years. I'll take an ugly win over a close loss. Ray Lankford was the World Series MVP with his 3 SBs single-handedly winning the category and giving the Men of LA the margin for victory.
