Birmingham Win League Championship Series
The championship aspirations of the Birmingham Black Magic are still alive and well, while the Saint Louis Canaries are left to wait until next year.

Birmingham won the clinching game of the League Championship Series 7-1 over Saint Louis at Ballpark of Saint Louis, to win the series 4-1.

"You feel like a little kid again, celebrating something like this," said first baseman Hank Clark, who paced the Birmingham offense and was named series MVP. "We take everything real seriously when we're on the field, but after a series is over you can finally relax a little bit."

Clark claimed the MVP by racking up 10 hits for a .526 average, with a .571 on-base percentage. He had 1 home runs, 6 RBI and scored 4 runs.

The Birmingham Black Magic will play against the Atlanta Foxes in the next round. Atlanta won their series against the Richmond Black Rifles 4 games to 0. The World Series schedule will be announced after the League Championship Series finishes.
