Phillies West Take Title
Sometimes the winner is the one who got the lucky bounces and the lucky calls, and sometimes the winner is just the one who played better.

It was the latter case in 2042, as the Philadelphia W (GCL) Phillies West topped the Minnesota (GCL) Twins 15-8 tonight at Hammond Stadium to win the Round 3. It was the 2nd title in franchise history.

"When you play for championships, you have to play better than the team in the other dugout. We did that in this series, and all year. Now we're the best team in baseball," said Philadelphia W (GCL) second baseman Ben Brinkman, who was named series MVP.

The Phillies West took the series 3-1. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a first-place finish in the Northwest Division and a 36-16 record.

Philadelphia W (GCL) manager grinned and nodded when asked to comment on Brinkman's words.

"Ben said it best -- we played better than the other team," the skipper said.

Hometown officials announced they were already planning a "grand celebration" for the winners in the days to come.
