Miners Take Title

Saturday, October 30th, 2027
"It was two outs in the last inning of the 2027 Return of the King Series and my heart is pounding. When the last out was made, a grand feeling came over me. We were the champs for today and forever. We were the champions." That is how the Moria manager described his feelings to reporters after the game. "This is the goal. This is the pinnacle of success. This is why we play the game."

The Moria Miners won their 1st league championship with a 8-5 win over the Minas Morgul Slayers. During the season the new champs compiled a 94-68 record in the Shire Conference Dwarf Division and finished in first place in the standings. They triumphed over the Slayers 4-3 in games.

Slayers Elrilmalith Sizzles with Cycle

Saturday, October 30th, 2027
Minas Morgul's Thuvtai Elrilmalith hit for the cycle today, becoming the first player ever to do so in the playoffs, but his club still went home with their heads hung low. The Slayers were upended by the Moria Miners 8-5.

"It was a good game for me," Elrilmalith said. "I wish it could have been a good game for all of us."

The Slayers center fielder sparked the offense with a truly special performance, hitting a single, double, triple and home run to add his name to the record books. Still, it wasn't enough to stop Moria. Elrilmalith went 4-for-4 for the game with 1 run scored and 4 runs batted in.

Thuvtai Elrilmalith doubled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Gusil Halflingshaver in the 7th and hit an RBI triple in the 9th.

Elrilmalith has a .251 average and a .284 on-base percentage for the year. He has picked up 106 hits, 7 home runs and driven in 62 runs.

"Beings will come Frodo. They'll come to Middle Earth for reasons they can't even fathom. They'll turn up your road not knowing for sure why they're doing it. They'll arrive at your door as innocent as hobbits, longing for the past. Of course, we won't mind if you look around, you'll say. It's only 2 gold pieces per person. They'll pass over the gold without even thinking about it: for it is gold they have and peace they lack. And they'll walk out to the bleachers; sit in shirtsleeves on a perfect afternoon. They'll find they have reserved seats somewhere along one of the baselines, where they sat when they were children and cheered their heroes. And they'll watch the game and it'll be as if they dipped themselves in magic waters. The memories will be so thick they'll have to brush them away from their faces. Beings will come Frodo. The one constant through all the years, Frodo, has been baseball. Middle Earth has rolled by like an army of Mumakil. It has been erased like a slate, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Frodo. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again. Oh... beings will come Frodo. Beings will most definitely come." - Torrenz Mantalker, Gladden Field of Dreams
