Beavers Sweep World Series | The Beacontown Beavers rolled over the New York Knights 8-5 at National League Park to easily win the 1896 World Series crown.
Beacontown won in a walk and swept the series from the Knights 4-0. It was their 1st championship title.
Winning manager Justin Weeks praised his own club as well as the opposition, calling the Knights "a fine team."
"It wasn't as easy as it looked. We had to play good baseball to beat them," he said. "We always seemed to come up with the key hit at the right time and to make the plays on defense when we had to. That's how you win the World Series."
The Beavers took second place in the Bitcoin Lite and rounded out the year with a 91-71 record. | | | | |
