The sun has set on Alex's baseball season. The season finale was last Tuesday, and he was having a pretty good game. As fortune would have it, he was the last batter (due to the no more than 10 at bats per inning rule) for his squad in the final inning. Alex strode up to the plate, and he swung for the fence.
Contact.
The ball flew high into the sky, as if it were chasing the sun along the western horizon, finally landing deep into left field. Without a doubt, it was the best hit Alex had all year, and the best one in his career. With the crowd roaring he converted this hit into a triple, but more importantly he also rode that at bat into his first, and his team's final, game ball of the year.
