New Hampshire Defeats Missouri Wednesday, September 16th , 2065 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 2065, as the New Hampshire Conquistadors topped the Missouri Mules 3-2 tonight at Conquistadors Park to win the United Baseball Cup. 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 New Hampshire left fielder Al Cresswell, who was named series MVP. The Conquistadors took the series 4-2. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a first-place finish in the East and a 78-48 record. New Hampshire manager grinned and nodded when asked to comment on Cresswell's words. "Al 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.
