New Hampshire Wins Round 1 Crown
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 2039, as the New Hampshire Fisher Cats topped the Akron RubberDucks 9-3 tonight at Northeast Delta Dental Stadium to win the Round 1. It was the 5th 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 New Hampshire starting pitcher Josh Love, who was named series MVP.

The Fisher Cats took the series 3-2. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a first-place finish in the Eastern Division and a 101-39 record.

New Hampshire manager Jeremy Rodriguez grinned and nodded when asked to comment on Love's words.

"Josh 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.
