A New Champion in HBL History

Danville's championship marks a historic milestone for the Hugg Baseball League.

For the first three seasons of the league's existence, the Buffalo Bisons dominated the HBL, winning all three World Series championships and establishing themselves as the league's only champions.

That streak has officially come to an end.

In the league's fourth season, the Danville Dairy Daddies have dethroned the reigning champions and become just the second franchise in HBL history to capture a World Series title.

The Dairy Daddies' championship also carries additional significance, as Danville eliminated Buffalo in the Division Series before going on to claim the title.

The Hugg Baseball League would like to congratulate the Danville Dairy Daddies and their ownership on an outstanding season and their first World Series championship!

We would also like to congratulate the Spokane River Rats on an excellent season and their Pacific League championship.

Congratulations to the Danville Dairy Daddies — HBL World Series Champions!
