series win
Clinching the championship
A series win is a victory in a multi-game competition, achieved by winning more games than the opponent.
In baseball, a team that takes two of three games claims the series win.
The term applies across sports and competitions structured as connected matches rather than single contests: The Dodgers secured the series win with a walk-off homer in game five.
