Orioles Black Sweep Tigers East
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 2043, as the Baltimore (FCL) Orioles Black topped the Detroit E (FCL) Tigers East 5-3 tonight at Joker Marchant Stadium to win the Round 2. It was the 4th 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 Baltimore (FCL) shortstop Frank Serrano, who was named series MVP.

The Orioles Black took the series 4-0. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a first-place finish in the Florida Complex League South and a 43-13 record.

Baltimore (FCL) manager David Price grinned and nodded when asked to comment on Serrano's words.

"Frank 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.
