The Game

Today is the biggest baseball game of the year with the crowd  . 
The sound of the ball hitting the bat  .
It is going to be a great day for baseball.
The teams   the field; it is time to play.
The first pitch was a home run everyone knew it was gone from the  .
It is the seventh inning the score is 3-2 and the best hitter was up.
And he   swing and a miss he struck out.
It is the bottom of the seventh; they are down by 1 run.
The 6'2 monster is up to bat. He gets hold of one and it's gone tie game. 
The   and the   coming from the crowd in the bottom of the ninth.
Bases loaded the score is 3-3, no outs.   the bat went.
It was a deep fly ball, but he caught it. The runner tags up. Is it enough to score?
And it is the game is over. The dogs are the new West Virginia state champions.
As the senior holds up the trophy for the last time. In his final high school game.
