Quebec Wins CPL Championship

The Quebec Lumberjacks defeated the Hollywood Stars to win the Charley Pegler League Championship. The A level team, which is affiliated with the Calgary Pioneers finished the season 82-49, tied for league best. This is the 3rd championship for the team and the 8th straight season they have made the playoffs. The team last won the championship in 2031.

“The guys played great all year,” new manager Tony Franco said. “It was our pitching and defense that got us through. Number one runs allowed and 11th in runs scored, but we had a +143 differential.”

The team, like all minor league squads, went through many roster changes throughout the season. The team’s all around best hitter was RF Jessie Walker (.262, 16 HR, 55 RBIs) and the best hurler was Rodrigo Gallegos (9-5, 2.04). The team made a run the second half of the year going 39-18 over the last 2 months.

Manager Tony Franco won the BL Manager of the Year Award in his first year with the team. Walker won the BL Best Fielder Award for his work in right field. Manuel GarzaManuel Garza finished 3rd in the BL Reliever of the Year voting and Carl Sanchez finished 4th.

Many of the players in Quebec will never get a chance to play in the BBA, this championship may be the crowning achievement of their careers.
