Championship Game

We managed to score one on a passed ball steal of home and held a tenuous 1 to 0 lead through most of the game.  Eli, who pitched brilliantly, ran out of pitches in the last inning, bottom of the sixth, and we brought in a new pitcher.  With two out and men on 2nd and 3rd, two balls, one strike, we told the pitcher to walk the hitter, knowing the next hitter was very likely an out.  But the pitcher, wanting to offer him a high pitch to get him to swing, got it down, the hitter sent it deep into center field, our center fielder would have gone through the fence if he could have, and it was gone.
