Danger Win Wildcard Series
Friday, October 26th , 2063
The Wildcard Series didn't live up to the billing from those who thought it would be an all-out battle to the last game.
But the New Mexico Danger are no doubt pleased by the results, as they have knocked out the Arizona Vipers 4-2 to advance to the League Championship Series.
"It doesn't matter how you win it, as long as you win it and get yourself moving forward," said Danger second baseman Juan Salazar. "I know a lot of people thought this was going to be a really tight series the whole way through, but we're glad it didn't go right down to the wire."
New Mexico won the final game by a score of 1-0 at The Snake Pit.
Salazar was named series MVP after hitting .259 with a .286 on-base percentage. He also had 4 home runs, drove in 6 RBI and scored 4 runs.
