WALK OFF HR
CATAPULTS RINGERS
The entire game
the Dead Ringers were trailing then undefeated
No Name.
No Name put up 6
runs to open the game. The Ringers responded
with 5 of their own. The entire game was this
see saw of power and momentum.
In the top of
the 7th with the score 11-10 in favor of No Name
they had a man on 1st with one out. Short stop
Mark Raciti was able to grab a screaming ground
ball and start the beginning of a 6 - 4- 3
double play to get the Dead Ringers out of the
top and into the bottom of the 7th.
Dan Thorne
started the inning off with a hard shot up the
middle but was thrown out at 3rd base. 3rd
baseman Chris Raciti then took a walk. Next
batter was Dave Fahey who took the count to 3
and 2. On the pay off pitch he took the pitch
and smashed it into the gap. The No Name right
fielder dove and missed the ball, and Dave Fahey
was able to come home. The Ringers went into a
frenzy. "As soon as i saw it leave the bat i
knew i had a chance at extra bases. When the
fielder missed it, I knew we were going to win!"
said Dave Fahey on his walk off at bat.
