Round 2 Sweep for Sioux City Sunday, September 21st , 2110 With a 4-3 win over the Washington Whalers tonight at Ballpark of Washington, the Sioux City Explorers wrapped up their 3rd title in team history. Sioux City left little doubt who was the better club. "Team" was the word of the day as the Explorers celebrated the culmination of their banner year in the victors clubhouse following the game. "Hitting, pitching, fielding; those are all things you need to win, but most importantly you need a team, a team that works together toward the same collective goal," said Sioux City manager Josh Henley. "Our players felt that way all year and they played that way. When one guy had an off day, 24 others stepped up their game and filled the void." A jovial mood filled the air as Sioux City celebrated into the night. The city's mayor said parade plans were underway and a "huge celebration" in the works. "We're going to celebrate our team, our championship Sioux City Explorers," the mayor said. The champions completed the regular season with a first-place finish in the American Association South Division and a 58-42 record. |
