When play begins Tuesday, there will be 12 games remaining in the first half pennant races. In the North, the Tulsa Drillers hold a one-game lead over the Arkansas Travelers. The South could well be decided ... or at least the race "defined" ... as Amarillo hosts San Antonio in a six-game series in the Panhandle.
The San Antonio Missions have taken over the lead in the division by winning 20-of-their-last-30 games. Amarillo has jumped into second by taking 12-of-their-last-14 and Corpus Christi is still just three games back, going 16-9 in their last 25 games. Arkansas took 4-of-6 at Tulsa (in the final meeting between the clubs in the first half), drawing to within one game of the Drillers with 12 to play.
