2014 Indians Win Title in Extras Over Angels in So Cal MSBL

Southern California MSBL 42+ Division

Indians 4, Angels 3

Submitted by Larry Shelton, Indians manager

The So Cal Indians had a fantastic regular season in the Southern California MSBL at 14-3 and went into the playoffs with quite a few guys injured. The Angels, fresh off an extra innings win, smashed us out of the gate 7-5 in game one of the best of three. In the second game we went back to the lineup that worked for us all year and bounced back with a 10-3 win. The deciding game went to extra innings with the Indians winning in the 10th inning 4-3 on a game winner by Scott Crutchfield. This was a true team effort as it took contributions from everyone on the roster to win it. We also would like to recognize the Angels and coach Ron Lovell for being tough competitors who battled us the whole way.
