| Conference Championship Goes the Distance, San Francisco Prevails | Federal Baseball League pundits who figured the Conference Championship between the San Francisco Pioneers and Leon Toltecs would go the distance were right on the mark.
The two teams battled back and forth in a spirited series, with San Francisco coming out on top thanks to a 7-2 win in the deciding game at Toltecs Field, to wrap things up 4-3.
"You get to the last game and anything can happen, so we're overjoyed to come out on top," said Pioneers first baseman George Katsman, who was named series MVP.
For the series, Katsman had 10 hits for a .385 average. He had 1 home runs, 6 RBI and scored 6 runs.
The San Francisco Pioneers will play against the New York Empire in the next round. New York won their series against the Chicago Hawks 4 games to 2. The World Series schedule will be announced after the Conference Championship finishes. | | | | |
