In Season 2 the Crabs were subject to one incineration.

  • This was the fifth incineration in the ILB, and the fourth in active play

Notable Games

In Season 2 some of the notable Crabs games were:

  • The Crabs played the Jazz Hands to 20 innings, making the first 20 inning game in the ILB. In the top of the 13th inning Kennedy Loser managed to hit a home run, but Bevan Underbuck tied the game back up until the 20th inning, when Parker Parra hit a 2-run-home run alongside Valentine Games, winning the game for the Crabs.

Election Outcomes

While the Crabs did not win any blessings they were effected by:

• Defection blessed the Canada Moist Talkers
  
  • The Moist Talkers stole PolkaDot Patterson from the Baltimore Crabs and sent back Oliver Notarobot.
  • The Moist Talkers won with 3% of the vote. The Los Angeles Tacos had 15% of the vote.

Season Overview

The Most Dangerous Game

The following summary mixes canon events with community lore.
While their overall performance was improved by the addition of Polkadot Patterson, the Crabs were just shy of a winning record, though they did mange to be a part of the first 20 inning game with the Breckenridge Jazz Hands. As the Forbidden Book was opened, the Crabs were among those to face the consequences of the act, with the fifth incineration of the ILB sending marine Biology student Nora Perez to her death. She was replaced by Holden Stanton in the lineup.

Election

While the Crabs did not receive any blessings, PolkaDot Patterson was stolen by the Canada Moist Talkers, trading out their star pitcher with the less-than-stellar Oliver Notarobot. This was one of the first of many times that the Crabs made an active show of swearing off the blaseball gods.
