The Power Cross baseball season came to a close last night with an exciting finish. The boys were 13-1 going into last nights championship game. We were facing the only team who had beat us all year. Both teams started their ace pictures. We were up 1-0 in the top of the third when TJ stepped to the plate with Travis on third. TJ liked the first pitch and sent it into the trees for a homerun that gave us a 3-0 lead. After a couple of walks and close calls the score was 3-1. Jesaye made a great throw from center field to Jalen to get out the lead runner, saving a run. Going into the bottom of the 5th and last inning the score was 4-2. Travis was on the mound with runners on 1st and 2nd, and one out. Their clean up hitter stepped to the plate and hit a shot to right field. QTra had been waiting all day for his chance to make a play. The ball seemed to go in slow motion as Q was running to the warning track. He laid out fully extended, his back completely to the field, reaching as far as he could...He jumped up with the ball in his glove. Threw it in and saved the winning run!!! Travis struck out the last batter to end the game. PC wins 4-3. After the game we ask QTra where he learned to do that. His answer, The Biggs. Yes, that's right the XBOX game The Biggs. Thank you Bill Gates.
Seven Power Cross Players were selected to the ALL Star team. Their first tournament action starts this weekend. We'll keep you posted.
Thanks,
Jeff, Nat, and the PC Boys
