Barao Butchers Beats Indaiatuba Pats for 4th in a Row

A last-ditch rally on Monday Night Football (40.20 points, 46% of their total score) wasn’t enough for Indaiatuba Pats, in spite of the efforts of Keenan Allen (85 Rec Yds, 1 TD) and CeeDee Lamb (117 Rec Yds), as Barao Butchers earned the 99.20 to 87.14 victory. The late-match efforts were a little unexpected, considering their original Monday projection was only 31.56 points. Barao Butchers was led by Raheem Mostert (115 Rsh Yds, 2 Rsh TD, 1 Rec TD). Mostert scored three touchdowns and provided 34.20 points to the cause. Barao Butchers (5-1, 661.12 points) climbs into second place, while Indaiatuba Pats (3-3, 669.00 points) drops to ninth place.
