Bluebirds Win World's
Series |
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 1907, as the Brooklyn
Bluebirds topped the Cincinnati
Packers 2-1 tonight at Avenue U Park to win
the World's Series. 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 Brooklyn starting
pitcher Ice
Clare, who was named series MVP.
The Bluebirds took the series 4-1. The new
titleholders completed the regular season with a
first-place finish in the National Base Ball League
Eastern Division and a 99-59 record.
Brooklyn manager grinned and nodded when asked to
comment on Clare's words.
"Ice said it best -- we played better than the other
team," he said.
Hometown officials announced they were already
planning a "grand celebration" for the winners in
the days to come. |
