Birmingham defeated the Toledo Mud Hens 4 games to 1, winning the 1957 League Championship Series. Mel Ott had an impressive 6 post season home runs for the Barons. Ott now has around 18 post season home runs over the course of his career. Ott's in his early 30's, so there's a good chance he will add to that number. The Barons have now won 3 of the last 4 league championships and 4 out of the last 6. I think that has to be called a dynasty. The 1958 preseason predictions have the Barons finishing down in the standing, but I will believe it when I see it.
