Padres Prevail, as Round 1 Goes to the Wire
In a series that had a little bit of everything, the San Diego (AZL) Padres have edged the Kansas City (AZL) Royals.

The two rival clubs went the distance in the tightly-contested Round 1, with a 6-2 win in the clincher being the difference for San Diego (AZL) and giving them the ticket to the Round 2 with a 3-2 series triumph.

"We never stopped believing in ourselves. When push came to shove we were going to get it done," said Alex Perez, who was named series MVP.

For the series, Perez hit .421 with a .500 on-base percentage. He had 0 home runs, drove in 1 RBI and scored 7 runs.

The San Diego (AZL) Padres will play against the Cleveland (AZL) Guardians in the next round. Cleveland (AZL) won their series against the San Francisco (AZL) Giants 3 games to 2. The Round 2 schedule will be announced after the Round 1 finishes.
