Chattanooga Lookouts Capture World Series
Sunday, October 28th , 2046
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 2046, as the Chattanooga Lookouts topped the Mississippi Braves 10-5 tonight at Trustmark Park to win the World Series. It was the 1st 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 Chattanooga left fielder Chaim Huting, who was named series MVP.
The Lookouts took the series 4-3. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a first-place finish in the American League Central Division and a 92-58 record.
Chattanooga manager Will Skinner grinned and nodded when asked to comment on Huting's words.
"Chaim said it best -- we played better than the other team," the skipper said.
Hometown officials announced they were already planning a "grand celebration" for the winners in the days to come.
