FRESNO -- "When you dream, dream big ... as big as the ocean blue. 'Cause when you dream, it might come true ... when you dream, dream big."

In a season filled with sadness, grief, frustration and even anger, the Pirates managed to find focus and determination through it all and on Monday, their hard work was rewarded with a state baseball championship.
