In Season β7, the Kansas City Breath Mints finished 1st in the Mild League, and 2nd in the ILB.

Season 7 was a pivotal moment in history for the Breath Mints, as they experienced massive success for the first time off the back of the Headliners blessing, only to have that success come to a crushing end with the Day 96 incineration of beloved star leadoff hitter Boyfriend Monreal at the hands of the debted Jaylen Hotdogfingers, leaving a poor leadoff replacement in Pudge Nakamoto unable to fill their famously quick shoes.

In the postseason, the Breath Mints were seeded 1st in the Mild League, and lost 1-3 versus the Mexico City Wild Wings in the first round Division Series.

Targeted by the Decree Bless Off, the Breath Mints won 0 blessings in the Election. This was their first time not winning any blessings in an Election. Targeted by a blessing won by the Hawai'i Fridays, the Breath Mints received Targeted Shame for the following Season.

Season Overview

COMMUNITY REPORTS
The remainder of this article contains lore created collaboratively by the Blaseball community.

The Breath Mints start Season 7 with their best performance ever, finishing the regular season with a record behind only the powerhouse Baltimore Crabs. Remarkably, they dominated even in games in which they are expected to lose, setting incredible records as underdogs.

Newly leadoff star hitter Boyfriend Monreal lead the team through a league on fire, as teams around the Mints suffered loss after loss at the hands of the resurrected Jaylen Hotdogfingers. However, the Mints found they could only dodge consequences for so long, as finally, on Day 96, their own shining star Monreal paid Hotdogfingers’ Debt with their own life. Teams and fans alike screamed their pain at the loss of their beloved, and declared Day 96 to forever be “Not Nice Day”, a day of mourning and remembrance.

While the league mourned Monreal, a new face appeared to leadoff the Mints lineup. Sadly, new recruit Pudge Nakamoto was a poor replacement on the field for Monreal’s easy winks and quick feet. While the friendly face provided some comfort for their teammates, fans were left wanting as the team that had risen so quickly to the top during the regular season fell sharply short, winning only 1 game in the postseason. The team retreated to lick their wounds and mourn their losses, and wouldn’t be seen at such power again for seasons.
