Portland Pickles Clinch First in Division 1: The pennant has been won, the Portland Pickles are champions of the Division 1.
Center Fielder Nicolas van Emmerik said his team is a "gritty and determined" club that were poised to win the division from day one. "We knew the day the season opened that we'd be champions," he said. "It was just a matter of going out there and doing it." At the helm, team manager Fred Drake said his club is certainly not short on confidence. "There's a lot of belief in the dugout and in the clubhouse," he said. Portland's record currently sits at 82-54 and it's the 5th division win for the franchise. |
