Denver Burros Win World Series
Sunday, October 22nd , 1972
The Denver Burros were good enough to get past the Detroit Wolverines at Gates Crescent Park today and secure the 1st championship in franchise history.
"When you wear Burros on your shirt, you're good at something," Denver skipper Clark Anderson told the press.
Burros second baseman Ricardo Castillo was named MVP of the series after he went .375 with 1 home run and 4 runs batted in.
"It feels totally incredible," Castillo said. "I could live to 1,000 years old and I'd remember this moment."
The new champions capped off a great season with a 13-5 victory over the Wolverines to win the World Series 4-2.
