The Rockies, managed by Russ Frickey, won their third straight 18+ championship 10-0 over the Padres. The Rockies avenged a regular-season loss (3-0) to the Padres, a game in which Mike LaFranchise threw a perfect game for them!

In the championship game, the Rockies hit the ball hard and scratched out three runs over LaFranchise’s six innings and blew the game open in the sixth and seventh. The game was called after seven innings due to the 10–run “mercy rule.”

The Rockies outscored their opponents in the semi-finals (11-5) and the championship (10-0) by a combined 21-5 margin, and out-hit their opponents 24-6.
