Fresno Takes League Championship Series
<Bernardo Hernández:player#11917> sparked his <Fresno Grizzlies:team#103> past the pesky <Birmingham Vulcans:team#20> in a closely-contested League Championship Series.

Fresno topped Birmingham 4-3 at Grizzles Park to decide the series, 4-1

For his efforts, <Hernández:player#11917> was rewarded with the series MVP trophy for his .400 batting average, 12 RBIs and 9 runs scored.

"You never want to leave anything on the field," Hernández said. "You never want to miss a play of defense you could have made, or give up an extra base you could have gotten, because in a series this tight you never know what you'll need to win."

The <Fresno Grizzlies:team#103> will play against the <Oklahoma City Whirlwind:team#13> in the next round. Oklahoma City won their series against the <Rochester Spartans:team#15> 4 games to 1. The Explorer Cup schedule will be announced after the League Championship Series finishes.
