					|   | Braves Advance to Conference Championship Friday, October 8th , 2049
 Ricardo Sandoval sparked his Mississippi Braves past the pesky Springfield Cardinals in a closely-contested Division Championship.
 
 Mississippi topped Springfield 7-4 at Trustmark Park to decide the series, 4-1
 
 For his efforts, Sandoval was rewarded with the series MVP trophy for his .438 batting average, 6 RBIs and 6 runs scored.
 
 "You never want to leave anything on the field," Sandoval said. "You never want to miss a play of defense you could have made, or give up an extra base you could have gotten, because in a series this tight you never know what you'll need to win."
 
 The Conference Championship matchups and schedule will be announced after the Division Championship finishes.
