Little Rock Win League Championship Series
While it wasn't a complete mismatch, the Little Rock Purple Warriors showed themselves to be the superior team in the League Championship Series, downing the Gilbert Steamrollers 4-2.

"Nothing is ever easy in the OLL Triple A playoffs. Whether you're a favorite or an underdog, you can't take anyone lightly or you'll get burned," said Jordan Luplow, who was named series MVP after a standout offensive performance.

Little Rock won the final game by a 4-3 count at Ballpark of Gilbert to clinch its spot in the next round.

They will hope to once again rely on Luplow there, as he hit .350 with 1 home runs, 3 RBI 3 runs scored during the series.

The Little Rock Purple Warriors don't know who they will face in the next round. They will play the winner of the Rancho Cucamonga Steelhounds - Newark Crawdads series. Rancho Cucamonga leads the series 3 games to 2. The World Series schedule will be announced after the League Championship Series finishes.
