They’re walking him. 6 home runs in four games, but now they’re walking him. And it backfired. They walked him to start the fourth inning and he got mad. Got the rest of the team riled up. Started stealing bases, forcing the issue. They were down 4 to 0, scored 3 in that inning. Next inning, he came up after his brother opened the inning with a double, next batter walked. They intentionally walked Tom to load them up with nobody out. We scored 5 in the inning. Dumb coaching by the other guy.
Hey, let the kids play.

I saw Tom in the hallway after 5th period today and asked him about his home runs. He told me they walked him. Geesh, come on!
“Got a beat-up glove, a homemade bat, and brand-new pair of shoes;
You know I think it’s time to give this game a ride.
Just to hit the ball and touch ’em all – a moment in the sun;
(pop) it’s gone and you can tell that one goodbye!”
