The Game of all Games
What a game! This was the ultimate battle! This was one of the most exciting, nail biting, stressful, fun, long games that we have played this year! This was a nail bitter just like our other International Tie Breaker in PreSeason against Beckman. To recap the game in a couple sentences is just too hard. There are so many AMAZING details and so many clutch plays that two sentences would hardly suffice. Let’s just say- Grace Craig pitched a great game. Alexis Soto called a great game. Kylee Pim, Crystal Eilerts and Katie Hare all made huge plays in the OF. Katie, sprinting from LF to 3B on bunt coverage- got CM’s fastest runner who was on 1B- she got her on a tag out at 3 when the runner tried to race straight from 1st to 3rd on a bunt. Our third baseman fielded the bunt- threw to 1B, Jackie Cota- our second baseman who was covering the base- made the force at 1, then fired the ball to 3B where our Left Fielder Katie Hare was covering and she made the catch and tagged the runner out as she slid hard into third. It was a huge play for us. Jackie Cota also hit a 3 run HR to keep us in the game in the 7th inning!!! We would have lost in the 7th if we didn’t score 2 to tie. Well her HR was a 3 run Hr and we went ahead in the 7th.
