Pawtucket Patriots Capture Brewmasters Cup: 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 2051, as the Pawtucket Patriots topped the Seattle Pilots 8-3 tonight at Pawtucket Park to win the Brewmasters Cup. It was the 5th 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 Pawtucket right fielder Gaige King, who was named series MVP.
The Patriots took the series 4-3. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a first-place finish in the Domestic League Ale Division and a 104-58 record.
Pawtucket manager Tom Campbell grinned and nodded when asked to comment on King's words.
"Gaige 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.
