Western & Plains Championship to Kamloops
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 1905, as the Kamloops Fur Traders topped the Steinbach Mennonites 9-2 tonight at Fur Traders Field to win the Western & Plains Championship. It was the 1st 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 Kamloops right fielder José María Jiménez, who was named series MVP.

The Fur Traders took the series 4-1. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a second-place finish in the Western League and a 68-64 record.

Kamloops manager Enrique Hinojosa grinned and nodded when asked to comment on Jiménez's words.

"José María 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.
