The Swift Current Indians are the new champions of the WMBL! Swift Current captured the 2010 title August 14th with a 7-2 win over Regina, sweeping the best-of-three series. They won the opener 7-1. Rain forced the league to switch from a best-of-five final to a best-of-three series.
During the regular season, the defending champion Okotoks Dawgs again had the best record, with 31 victories.
Regina first sacker Mitch MacDonald (left) won the Triple Crown leading the league in batting average, .476, home runs, 8, and runs batted in, 48. McDonald, a Regina product, was also named the league's Most Valuable Player. The first baseman had experience in the Florida Marlins system after signing with the club after a record-breaking, all-star, college season at Monterey Peninsula College in California in 2007.
Adam Reynolds (right) of Lethbridge was named the top pitcher in leading the league in wins (7) and ERA (1.26).
