How the WCL champion Wenatchee AppleSox 'found a way to win ugly'

The briefing

The Wenatchee AppleSox beat the Corvallis Knights 8-7 to claim the West Coast League championship, their sixth title and first since 2014. Reese Vassar's bases-loaded three-run triple in the eighth inning delivered the decisive swing before Easton Brooks closed it out on his birthday. The 43-13 season produced a franchise-best regular-season winning percentage, both North Division half-titles, the league's best overall record and Coach of the Year honors for Mitch Darlington.
