A really good series. Congrats to Rick on a fine season. Rick, you built a really strong team that was very difficult to keep down. I felt like this series was closer than the final tally will show. Congrats again, Rick.
Lexington wins the series 4 - 1 and moves on to play Scottsdale which should be an epic matchup!
