GTOP S1W1: Recap

After a four-game sweep, the 1915 Philadelphia Phillies have taken the early lead in the Season 1 standings. That comes despite having by far the lowest team batting average after four games, but also by far the best team ERA. The Phillies won their four games with a +5 run differential. Only the 1912 New York Giants also won their opening series (but did so despite being outscored).
