New Hampshire Advances to Conference Championship Thursday, October 6th , 2044 The New Hampshire Fisher Cats didn't hold back their excitement after beating the Birmingham Barons in the Division Championship tonight. Members of the team rushed onto the field and celebrated joyously when the victory became official, with a 5-3 win moving the club on to the Conference Championship, clinching a 4-1 series win in front of the Regions Field crowd. "This isn't the big one, but of course we need to get through this before we can win a World Series, so it's an important step," said Takanibu Kaneshiro as he took a break from celebrating. "Our guys are happy and excited to be moving on." Kaneshiro was named series MVP, as he hit .400 with a .400 on-base percentage. He had 1 home runs, drove in 4 RBI and scored 3 runs. On the other side of the diamond, there was desolation. Many members of the Barons sat stone-faced in their dugouts, simply watching New Hampshire celebrate.
