Each player was introduced and cheered for by the home town fans......they looked sharp in their brand new jerseys with their name and number on the back..navy blue with white and red trim. Their smiles were big and bright! I was so proud ,I had tears in my eyes as they called out "Starting on third base tonight for Auburn .....Taf Fogarty!!!
The Star Spangled Banner played in full force filling the complex. I looked around and watched as little boys admired the big boys, and the old men looked at those " big boys" and must have known just how they were feeling. I was gushing I was so excited!!
The game was exciting and Auburn was triumphant winning by 10 runs in the 6th inning. !11-1
Taf''s contribution to the game was a super man dive off third to catch a line drive on his belly. He jumped up and just missed the double play at first. Everyone in the stands thought he had him out at first but the ump said differently. Anyway, the batter was out and I could see my orthodontic investment shining bright from that kid of mine at third!!!
