After Day 8 the Beat Reporter sent a message recapping the past 24 hours' events, mentioning Derrick Krueger's Day 6 performance. The message incorrectly states Derrick gave up 14 runs instead of the actual 16.

QUICK HITS FROM SEASON 1 DAY 2
[...] Last Season's Champions, the Charleston Shoe Thieves, were wrecked by the Atlantis Georgias in a recent game. Anticipated All-Star Derrick Krueger gave up 14 runs, despite their outstanding stats coming into the League. Can Krueger right the ship and make the Thieves a shoe-in for this Postseason?
