Chiefs Sweep Sidewinders
Sunday, October 16th , 2061
With a 7-4 win over the Tucson Sidewinders at Victory Field today, the Syracuse Chiefs wrapped up their 4th title in team history.
The Chiefs left little doubt who was the better team. Celebrating a banner year, "team" was the word of the day in the victorious clubhouse after the game.
"Hitting, pitching, fielding; those are all things you need to win, but most importantly you need a team, a team that works together toward the same collective goal," said Syracuse manager Abe Blowers. "Our players felt that way all year, and they played that way. When one guy had an off day, 24 others stepped up their game and filled the void."
A jovial mood filled the air as Syracuse celebrated into the night. The city's mayor said parade plans were underway and a "huge celebration" would be in order.
"I hope they have a big celebration," Tucson manager Spike Peck said. "They deserved to win this series and they deserve to celebrate it."
