Harwich Fishheads Win Cape Cod Series: With a 6-2 win over the Provincetown Land Pirates at Fishheads Ballpark today, the Harwich Fishheads wrapped up their 1st title in team history.
The Fishheads left little doubt who was the better team. Celebrating a banner year, "team" was the word of the day in the victorious clubhouse after the game.
"Hitting, pitching, fielding; those are all things you need to win, but most importantly you need a team, a team that works together toward the same collective goal," said Harwich manager Primetime DesMarais. "Our players felt that way all year, and they played that way. When one guy had an off day, 24 others stepped up their game and filled the void."
A jovial mood filled the air as Harwich celebrated into the night. The city's mayor said parade plans were underway and a "huge celebration" would be in order.
"I hope they have a big celebration," Provincetown manager Killer Earp said. "They deserved to win this series and they deserve to celebrate it."

The Paw Sox took a 10-3 victory over the Hope Firestarters at Hope Field, winning their 2nd championship after taking the series 2-1.
"We've got grit," said Paw Sox third baseman Zero Nought, who was named MVP of the series. "We know how to win when we have to."
