It’s party time in Carrock. The confetti is flying and residents are smiling.
The Carrock Bears have reached the mountaintop, capturing the 2051 Return of the King Series today. They defeated the Numenor Kings 7-2 at Old League Park to officially wrap up the series 4-3.
Asked how it feels to be a champion, second baseman Z. Beryl of the Lake was to the point.
“It feels great, like a million bucks. I’m so happy right now, not just for me but for all the guys,” he said. “We put a lot of work into this and deserve to be champions.”
The team is planning a victory parade and fan appreciation day later in the week. Carrock finished the regular season 86-76 and claimed first place in the Shire Conference Hobbit Division.
