The Syracuse Orange Sox appear poised to make a serious run at the League Championship Series after a convincing sweep over the Thunder Bay Lighting in the Divisional Series.

It's now on to the League Championship Series for Syracuse, who won the final game 28-2 and took the series 4-0.

"Everyone's doing their part and things are falling into place," said Syracuse first baseman Josh Borga, who was named series MVP. "It feels like a special year."

For the series, Borga hit .647 with a .750 on-base percentage. He had 1 home runs, drove in 8 RBI and scored 12 runs.

The Syracuse Orange Sox don't know who they will face in the next round. They will play the winner of the Montreal Cardinals - Rosewell Tribbles series. Rosewell leads the series 3 games to 1. The League Championship Series schedule will be announced after the Divisional Series finishes.
