The Chicago Fire continue their storybook year as they overcame the Washington Night Train 4 games to 1 and now head to the Kinsella Classic Series with their eye on claiming the first championship in team history.
And they will face the San Francisco Velocity, who also won 4 games to 1, with the clinching win coming in a great pitcher's duel between San Francisco's ace Jon Harrington and Oklahoma City righty Mike Piles, which went to Harrington by a score of 1-0.
San Francisco not only moves on to the KCS, the first in their history after making the playoffs for the first time in 1984 but not advancing past the MGL Championship series, but they also announce the contract extension of veteran reliever Ben Bakeman.
