Toucans Move on to League Championship Series
Tuesday, September 16th , 2149
WBA Triple A fans were certainly not disappointed with this Americas Baseball League Divisional Series.
The two teams were evenly matched and the series went to the final game, with the Curitiba Toucans prevailing over the Granma Alazanes to advance to the League Championship Series.
Curitiba won the final game by a score of 5-4 at Foxes Ballpark and that sealed the series 3-2.
"Things were tense in our clubhouse and dugout before and during this game, but we can let loose a bit now -- the hard work is over, for now," said third baseman Hansakaya Sampath, who earned MVP honors.
For the series, Sampath hit .350 with a .409 on-base percentage. He had 1 home runs, 4 RBI and scored 1 runs.
The Curitiba Toucans will play against the Houston Rodeo in the next round. Houston won their series against the Belo Horizonte Jaguars 3 games to 1. The League Championship Series schedule will be announced after the Divisional Series finishes.
