HOMERUN

As the dew melted from the morning sun Bay shifted his hat and rose from the bench.
While making his way to the warm-up circle Bay cleaned off his uniform. Looking through the bats bay chose his favorite stick. After tapping on his cleats, he took two swings to strech his arms.

"Strike three," said the umpire.

Now with two outs Bay knew he could'nt let his team down. The bases were loaded and Liberals were down by 2 in the 9th inning.

As Bay walked up to the batters box, the pitcher of the Conservatives gave him a snarl. Bay smiled.

The crowd was silent as the pitcher checked the bases.

The pitcher threw a fastball down the pipe and bay had his eye on it the whole time. With a steady swing Bay, aimed dead on and the ball flew high in the air.

Over the fence and into the stands the ball landed.

"HOMERUN" the announcer said.

The game was over and the Liberals won once again!
