Columbus Wins 2025 Round 2!
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 2025, as the Columbus Clippers topped the Durham Bulls 11-2 tonight at Huntington Park to win the Round 2. It was the 1st 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 Columbus left fielder Rylan Charles, who was named series MVP.

The Clippers took the series 3-2. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a first-place finish in the West Division and a 89-51 record.

Columbus manager Toby Gardenhire grinned and nodded when asked to comment on Charles's words.

"Rylan 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.
