Chuckwallas Win Round 3
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 2070, as the Chihuahuan Chuckwallas topped the Pine Bluff Man Trolls 3-1 tonight at Vanquishers Ballpark to win the Round 3. It was the 3rd 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 Chihuahuan third baseman Steve Flores, who was named series MVP.

The Chuckwallas took the series 4-1. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a first-place finish in the Pacific League Northern Division and a 73-47 record.

Chihuahuan manager grinned and nodded when asked to comment on Flores's words.

"Steve 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.
