DSL Kansas City Royals Win Round 3
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 2041, as the DSL Kansas City Royals topped the DSL Arizona Diamondbacks 20-11 tonight at Baseball City Complex to win the Round 3. It was the 4th 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 DSL Kansas City left fielder Juan Ramos, who was named series MVP.

The Royals took the series 4-2. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a second-place finish in the Central Division and a 103-37 record.

DSL Kansas City manager grinned and nodded when asked to comment on Ramos's words.

"Juan 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.
