Bay Area Beats Charlotte in Championship Series
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 2023, as the Bay Area Bandits topped the Charlotte Hawks 3-2 tonight at Bandits Park to win the Championship Series. It was the 2nd 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 Bay Area right fielder Ryan Jones, who was named series MVP.

The Bandits took the series 4-1. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a second-place finish in the Major Conference Western Division and a 89-73 record.

Bay Area manager Nomad Garciajawa grinned and nodded when asked to comment on Jones's words.

"Ryan 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.
