Event:
It is the bottom of the 9th, the home team trails by one and the count is two strikes with two outs and a runner on 1st. Players and fans alike are standing, waiting with bated breath. The pitcher winds up…the throw…(ping)…the ball pops off the bat sailing over the fence for a game winning home run. The home team rushes the field in jubilation. A dream countless little leaguers everywhere have had, and it's a dream that gets renewed this weekend.
