 While it wasn't a complete mismatch, the Columbus Clippers showed themselves to be the superior team in the Conference Championship, downing the Pawtucket Red Sox 4-2.
 
 "Nothing is ever easy in the International League playoffs. Whether you're a favorite or an underdog, you can't take anyone lightly or you'll get burned," said George Wagner, who was named series MVP after a standout offensive performance.
 
 Columbus won the final game by a 5-4 count at McCoy Stadium to clinch its spot in the next round.
 
 They will hope to once again rely on Wagner there, as he hit .400 with 1 home runs, 5 RBI 3 runs scored during the series.
 
 The World Series matchups and schedule will be announced after the Conference Championship finishes.
