AZL Defeats AZL
Monday, August 29th , 2011
It's party time in AZL. The confetti is flying and residents are smiling.
The AZL Reds have reached the mountaintop, capturing the 2011 Round 1 today. They defeated the AZL Mariners 8-1 at Peoria Stadium to officially wrap up the series 4-2.
Asked how it feels to be a champion, center fielder Angel Garcia was to the point.
"It feels great, like a million bucks. I'm so happy right now, not just for me but for all the guys," he said. "We put a lot of work into this and deserve to be champions."
The team is planning a victory parade and fan appreciation day later in the week. AZL finished the regular season 39-17 and claimed second place in the Arizona League.
