Kansas City (SS-A) Royals Are Champs
It was all about winning for the Kansas City (SS-A) Royals -- and win they did.

There was nothing fancy in how they went about it, players said, they just prepared mentally and physically and then went out and played baseball.

"We did the little things right and we did the big things right," said first baseman Nick Vandemark, who was named series MVP. "Now we're the league champions."

Kansas City (SS-A) defeated the Tri-City Dust Devils by a score of 11-2 at Gesa Stadium to take the series 4-2.

"Sometimes you get lucky and sometimes you make your own luck," said Kansas City (SS-A) manager Willie Estrada. "We got lucky a few times, but mostly we did the right things by being prepared for each game and playing the game the way it's meant to be played."
