With a 5-4 win at MGM Park, Mississippi closed out the championship 4-2 over Biloxi.
The Braves have now won their 12th league championship in franchise history. The streets around the Braves' stadium were a mob scene, filling quickly with fans, while banners and flags were held high and waved proudly.
"It's unbelievable for us, our great fans, and all of Mississippi," said a smiling owner The owner of the Mississippi Braves. "The guys really put their heart and soul into this season and it paid off for them."
In a somewhat somber and dejected Shuckers clubhouse, manager Garrett Davis said his team "just didn't get the job done."
"The Braves played as good as any team I've seen and deserve to be champions," he said.
The champs finished the regular season 81-58 and claimed second place in the South Division.
