American League Smashes NL; Now Holds 60% Of Baseball Strength

This weekend's interleague ballgames gave us an excellent picture of how the National League stacks up against the junior circuit. Not only has the American League won approximately 60% of its games against the NL, but it also holds about 60% of the power ratings: a huge change from last week when the AL was at about 53% on both measures. What a difference an interleague weekend makes.

Note also the NL Central's percentage drop from 95% of the AL East's strength to only 64%, and the AL Central's climb to #4 in the division rankings. We now have much more parity between divisions.
