Vancouver Clinches Playoff Spot Despite Loss
Friday, September 21st, 2040
The Vancouver may have lost the battle at the ballpark today, but they won a big part of the war: they clinched a spot in the playoffs.

"It's certainly not how you picture it when you're a kid," said manager Eric Grant today after his Vancouver Cobras clinched, despite his squad's loss to the St Charles.

"It was a little weird at first, kind of celebrating, kind of ... I don't know ..." Grant trailed off musing the situation while in the clubhouse after the game. "But despite what happened today, we are a winning team and we earned this. It's not about what happened today, it's about how well this team has played all season long. The guys have fought hard all year long, and they really deserve the spot in the postseason. So yeah, we're definitely celebrating tonight."

If the fans felt any qualms about the circumstances, they sure didn't show it. Vancouver Cobras faithful by the thousands hung around outside the stadium long after the game, cheering and celebrating into the night.
