The game had started by seven. I could not wait for this! I knew I should have slept earlier before the game, but I couldn’t!
I was in my position when it started. The first pitch from my pitcher was so great. The game continued on zero to zero until the very last inning.
In the last inning, up first to bat was our captain. I thought he was going to hit it. I was right. He hit and got to second base. The next batter hit, too. The captain came back to home plate and we won! It was unbelievable.
I got a gold medal. Everything seemed so great. I think this is the big result of hard work and practicing. I cried when it finished because I was so happy. This will be the best day of my life. I’ll never forget it.
