The Coastal Plain League All-Star Break signifies only two weeks left in the regular season. When action resumes on Wednesday, July 21, it'll start a 13-day sprint to the finish for teams looking to make the Pettit Cup Playoffs in the second half.
Complicating matter is the weather. After a June with many sunny days, the rains have come through much of the CPL cities in July. With such a tight schedule already, doubleheaders will be prevalent as the playoff race reaches its climax.
