Wow; More Baseball (Only, Interesting)
Wow! I haven’t played Sims 2 or the Wii or games you have to buy in a long time! I don’t really know why I am writing this post, but I don’t have any ideas… literally, it took me 10 minutes to think of this!
…
OH! I HAVE A GREAT IDEA! I will tell you about my baseball game!
So this game I went 1 for 4, which is really bad. I am holding my lead-off hitter position (lead-off hitter: the first batter). I grounded out twice and struck out (looking :’) ) once… but it was on a really nasty curveball that was inside and a bit high, and it curved to the plate. Anyway, it was back and forth all game and it was nerve-wracking, but also fun. It wasn’t a runaway game (in their favor) like the rest. So it is the seventh a.k.a. the last inning and we are the home team. It is like 6 to 8 and they are in the lead. (Like I said, it was back and forth all game and they had the lead about half the time and we had the lead about half the time.) Here is when I needed a hit… bigtime!
So I was on deck (a.k.a. second in the order) and there was a really good pitcher up. He had like there pitches: Fastball (about 65 MPH), Curveball (probably like 55 MPH (he didn’t give me a curveball)), and a Screwball (the spin is brutal and it messes you up; opposite from a curveball; and probably about 60 MPH). The person ahead of me in the order hit, what I think to be, a double. I forgot. So then I was up. (Oops! Forgot to tell you all that this pitcher was kinda wild but got it in the zone more than some…) There were 2 balls and two strikes, I think (but I am sure there were 2 strikes: one hard hit-ball that went foul ball and a run-of-the-mill, swing-and-a-miss strike). The next pitch was low and outside, but still, a legitimate strike… and I swung…
… and I am so glad I did! I hit the ball just outside the infield on a fly and over the secondbasemen’s head. The batter before me scored somehow and I was on first. They changed the pitcher and then I stole second. The person after me in the batting order grounded out but moved me to third. There, I had an advantage: the pitcher was a lefty. This means I could see whether he was going to try to pick me off faster than if he were a righty. (Leftys have there back to third when they are pitching, meaning you can see there every move… Mwahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaa!) He tried to pick me off a few times and so did the catcher, but I stayed on third base. The next hitter walked, I think and then stole second. The next one after him walked and then the one after him hit a pop-up in the infield for an infield fly rule. But he scored me… the game was now 8-8. There was a runner on third now and Mason was up. Mason took a couple swings and then had 2 strikes and maybe some balls, I don’t know. But mason hit it hard and ran out the ground ball and the runner on third scored! WE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Our coach went berserk with happiness. We all jumped around, congratulating Mason and the runner who scored the winning run. We also game the game ball to a player who did well the whole game. (He was the one who hit the pop-up in the infield.) Well, that is all and I have to eat breakfast. C ya everybody!!!
