Only one out and I was on second. This was a good chance. Mr. Miller thought so too. I was to run on contact. He would tell me if I could try for home. Garret got in the lefty's box...and the catcher stood up. He turned to the umpire and said something to indicate an intentional walk. Garret turned, gave his bat a small toss towards our dugout, and jogged to first.

Jason moved from the circle to the batter's box. The pitcher started him off with a curve outside the zone for a ball. The next one was able to fall in the zone for a called strike. Jason must have started to feel that the curve was the only pitch he would see. Third pitch was another curve; this time Jason swung...and missed. 1-2 count. Fourth pitch, Jason swung at what he thought was going to be another curve, but it wasn't. The pitch hit the thinner part of his bat and rolled to the shortstop. I did my best to sprint to third.

"Out!"
