This is exactly what happens with the print function and the system standard output. The output, like BAL is written to the standard output, then the output is flushed, with a newline character. This is why you see inconsistent spacing and team names running together, like this:

Now, consider the following code:

import threading

def worker():
    print ('Hello World') 

thread_list = []
for i in range(4):
    thread = threading.Thread(target=worker)
    thread_list.append(thread)
    thread.start()

No matter how many times I run this program newlines are not getting flushed. Why?

Output:

Hello World
Hello World
Hello World
Hello World
