CHASE MURPHY’S PRESS BOX SCRIBBLES — Bottom 9, Two Outs, Final Batter
Scoreboard Update:
Clinton holds on! Sanford’s rally dies with a strikeout. I actually stood up and shouted in the press box. I think I just got shushed by a 10-year-old (son of the scoreboard operator?) with a funnel cake.
And now, the math is done. The path is clear: One more out, and Red Springs is your outright Tobacco State League regular season champion.
Juan Hartman toes the rubber. The bullpen is empty. The dugout is quiet. McSwain’s stopped stretching. Everyone’s just… holding their breath.
One. More. Out.
