Syracuse Defeats Columbus
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 2110, as the Syracuse Chiefs topped the Columbus Clippers 8-4 tonight at NBT Bank Stadium to win the Round 2. It was the 6th 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 Syracuse right fielder Ricardo Mendoza, who was named series MVP.

The Chiefs took the series 4-3. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a second-place finish in the North Division and a 79-63 record.

Syracuse manager Mark Holgate grinned and nodded when asked to comment on Mendoza's words.

"Ricardo 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.
