That's it. That's the whole team news. The headline says it all. You may go back to whatever you were doing when you clicked on this post......
Oh... There has to be more to get my 2 points worth? Well how about Portland dominated the series, winning by a combined 26-14. How about that over the course of the 27 innings played in the series, Vancouver led for a total of 3 of those. How about that Allan Uecker saw Mounties pitching as nothing more as batting practice, going 6 for 9 in the series with 2 homeruns and 8 RBI, including a pair of 4 RBI games. Does that make it enough for a team news?
Nah we need quotes. "It's like falling in love" said Lumberjacks assistant general manager Sandy Mounds. "The grass is greener. The sky is bluer. The air smells sweeter after you sweep Vancouver."
"Unless you do it IN Vancouver" interjected Chris Wilson, "there the air still smells like piss."
Portland followed the sweep of Vancouver with a sweep of the Stars. But that brought less pleasure the home faithful as the opening sweep to Vancouver did.
