New Jersey Devastated by Playoff Elimination
It evidently wasn't meant to be for the <New Jersey Athletics:team#80> in 2057. Despite being relevant in the playoff race down the stretch, the team has fallen short of qualifying and will watch the postseason from the sidelines.

New Jersey last appeared in the postseason in 2054. This is their 3rd consecutive year missing the playoffs, and in total they have not advanced past the regular season 20 times in their 45 - year history. In the last 10 seasons, the Athletics have missed the playoffs 8 times. New Jersey last won the Federation Cup Series in 2042.
