World Championship Game 1 Victory for Blanche and Montreal
The Montreal Royales started the World Championship in style today, downing the visiting Minnesota Lake Monsters at Royale Park by a score of 5-4 to stake an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-7 series. Royales left-hander Scott Blanche threw 8.0 innings of 6-hit ball.

Rafael Miranda dealt the Lake Monsters a blow in the bottom of the sixth. Batting with a runner on 2nd and Montreal leading 4-2, Miranda, who finished 2nd in the EL in on-base percentage with .378 in 2105, hit a 1-2 forkball for a run-scoring single.

"Scott just went about his business, throwing strikes," said Montreal manager Martin Doyer.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Royale Park in Montreal.
