Bruins Sweep Round 1
This is the time of the baseball season when grown men are reduced to tears. This year, the Denver Bruins were shedding tears of joy and the New Orleans Showboats those of sorrow.

The Bruins topped the Showboats today 12-6 at Toledo Tornado Field and locked up their 3rd Century League Round 1 championship, winning the series 4-0.

"To come this far and leave empty-handed is not easy," said New Orleans manager Charlie Elder.

The Bruins finished the regular season in the Century League with a 80-60 record, ending up in first place in the division standings.
