It was actually Garret who broke up the celebration and told us it was time to clean up. It made a lot of us feel like he wasn't happy or satisfied with this kind of ending.
Kyle slapped his back. "Hey, man. There's nothing you can do about a bad ump. You pitched well. We all know it was a perfect game."
Garret grinned and threw his arm around his shoulders. "You and Dave better not forget it. King of the Mound is mine once again."
Kyle shoved him away. "I still have one more chance to shine."
"And you think that can top my two perfect games and a no-hitter?" Garret was skeptical.
"I could get 21 consecutive strikeouts." Kyle said.
Garret laughed, holding his stomach. "Your girlfriend has a better chance of doing that than you do."
Kyle couldn't exactly get mad at that. Or refute it, in case it got back to Marie.
