Little League

The crack of the bat

It sails high over third base

The crowd stands and cheers


His first hit ever

He will never make the BIGS

Smiles from ear to ear

Barbara, I know this feeling and you have captured it directly. It is flat precision of an announcer on the radio. Regards, Gerard

This form is so elegent when done right and you have done it very well (in my thinking). A few words, stated with precision, creating a vivid and emotional picture.
