2014 WORLD SERIES

GAME 1: New Jersey 11 St. Louis 3
Justin Morneau uncorked a grand slam in the 1st, to start what would be a barrage of offense for the Boys from Jersey. Knights lead Series 1-0

GAME 2: New Jersey 1 St. Louis 0
J.D. Durbin tosses a 4-hit, complete game shutout of the Cardinals, to send the Knights to Jersey with a 2-0 series lead.

GAME 3: St. Louis 4 New Jersey 1
Starter Andrew Kimmell, who won a World Series ring in 2007 with New Jersey, gave up 1 run over eight innings to beat his old mates and help the Cardinals get into the Series down 2 games to 1.

GAME 4: New Jersey 7 St. Louis 3
Uri Petrov and Charlie Whittle both uncorked 3 run homers, giving Bruno Moya all the offense he need to stop the Cardinals, pitching a complete game, striking out seven as the Knights take a 3-1 series lead.

GAME 5 St. Louis 8 New Jersey 6
St Louis starter Francisco Garcia struck out eight over seven innings and gave up three runs. Despite a New Jersey rally in the top of the 8th, the Cardinals held on and cut the series lead to 3 games to 2.

GAME 6: New Jersey 5 St. Louis 0
Andrew Kimmell didn't have the same luck he did in Game 3. His former mates tagged him for five runs, while NJ's Nicholas Rank fired a complete game shutout and struck out six as the Knights are on the brink of their second World Series in franchise history.

GAME 7: New Jersey 4 St. Louis 3
Down 2-1 in the bottom of the 8th, Jersey scored after homer from Ricky Salo and an RBI double from Justin Morneau added two runs, the Knights tacked on one more and despite St. Louis scoring a run in the top of the ninth, it wasn't enough and the New Jersey are your WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS for 2014.

The New Jersey Knights become the second franchise in the Modern Era to win two World Series titles. The franchise won in 2007 as the New Jersey Cyclones during the year of the bypass rule.

"We're thrilled that we got this one. People called us one hit wonders for quite some time and to manage this is sweet," said Knights manager Cito Gaston wins his fourth World Series ring as a manager (1992-93, Toronto, 2007, 2014, New Jersey) to put him in exclusive company and the first manager to lead two teams to two titles.
