The MetroSox win their 6th championship. The final game featured a pitchers dual, K. Curtin vs B. Foster, both pitched very well going the distance in a 2-1 game. The Sox Russ Ward and Scott Ellis turn a key double play, bases loaded no outs in the 3rd keeping the Braves from scoring in the inning. Both teams played fine defense behind their pitcher but, the Sox squeeze a run out to break the 5th inning tie. Credit a very good all around Braves team reaching the finals for the third consecutive year.
