Repeat! HP Wins 23-22
Can you say repeat!
On this 2nd day in May with the evening air just a tad cool, everything appeared to be normal. I mean Harvest Point Mens team played host to Glen Haven Baptist and kept the door closed on them in the first at bats, then kept the score keeper busy when HP scored 5 runs straight out of the gate. Well thats it folks, throw normal out and put HP scrambling to just get one out! The second and third innings were the special, really special. " We just gave them a boat load of runs there and really could not explain how", stated coach Tom, "it's like trying to plug a leak in Hoover Damn with a straw, we just could not get it done".
But somehow HP kept Glen Haven in sight, and never really gave up. "We've seen it before and we believe in ourself so you keep swinging the hammer till you drive that last nail in the wood" Tom said, man he was right. With two outs and men on base and last inning of play, down by 5 runs those old rugged bats came alive and the last blow from a Billy Mote swing hammered home one of the best come from behind wins you may ever witness. Once again HP on top by a score of 23 to 22. You need not say anything else, what a game and what a finish. The fun and excitement is what it is all about, you just have to see to really enjoy it. And once again the admission is free!
