1st inside the park HR
While playing OOTP 19. Of course it wasn't my team but the team I was playing against. Who just happen to be the 1st place team in my division. Also it just happened to be in the top of the 8th with me cruising along winning 5-1. And just to make it extra special..the bases were loaded.
I was afraid he was going to hit a grand slam because he is leading the league in homers. When the ball left the bat I knew it was a hit because it was headed for the gap in left center . I was still relieved because I figured double and only 2 runs would score ( guy on 1st slower than molasses).
Ball goes to the wall and just as my weak arm CFer gets to it the last runner turns towards home and the batter is headed to 3rd. Base clearing triple I figure. I'm still up by one. But nope. As the ball reaches the cut off man the guy rounds 3rd and heads home. Close play at the plate and I had to wait a second to see the result. Safe! GRAND SLAM!
I sit back in my chair and curse OOTP for stressing me out like this on a Sunday. I end up giving up another run in the 9th and losing 6-5 for my 4th loss in a row.
