San Diego Sweeps into the League Championship Series
Wednesday, October 11th , 2045
Many baseball pundits expected a close series in the National League Division Series. It turned out quite a bit different.
The San Diego Padres swept aside the Arizona Diamondbacks to advance to the League Championship Series, winning the final game by a 7-6 score at Chase Field.
The series MVP was second baseman Rich Chavez, who hit .667 with a .667 on-base percentage. He had 1 home runs, drove in 5 RBI and scored 2 runs.
"We expected this series to go right down to the wire, so to sweep is a bit of a surprise," he said. "But we'll take it."
The San Diego Padres don't know who they will face in the next round. They will play the winner of the Chicago Cubs - Washington Nationals series. Washington leads the series 2 games to 1. The League Championship Series schedule will be announced after the Division Series finishes.
