Yucca Valley Sweeps SL A Championship Monday, September 9th , 2052 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 2052, as the Yucca Valley Yellows topped the Levittown Blue Dragons 12-8 tonight at The Cave at Levittown to win the SL A Championship. It was the 3rd 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 Yucca Valley third baseman Gonzalo Ordóñez, who was named series MVP. The Yellows took the series 2-0. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a second-place finish in the Silver A and a 62-34 record. Yucca Valley manager Ricardo Vásquez grinned and nodded when asked to comment on Ordóñez's words. "Gonzalo 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. View Boxscore View Game Log |
