The Game-Winning Hit!

To say that I am a proud dad right now is a huge understatement! Zachary had his league championship baseball game tonight. It was quite a game. Both teams played their hearts out to the very end. Zachary's team went down by one run in the last inning, but fought back during their last at bat.

That's when the magical moment came. With the bases loaded and 1 out, Zachary came to the plate. I really haven't been that nervous in a long time! After taking a few pitches, Zachary got a hold of one and lined it into the gap for a 3-RBI game-winning triple! The crowd went wild (including his dad who started jumping around  screaming like a chicken who just lost his head) and his team quickly rushed the field and jumped on top of him like you see in the major leagues. The final score was 7-5. It was one of those moments that will last in our memory for a long time.
