The eHarbarians’ softball season ended on an incredible high note on Wednesday, September 16, 2009. The eHarbor, Inc. softball team had to play a doubleheader that day, one game after the other, and they came through both times to grab a double victory.
Coming off a stellar victory in the first game, our team kept up with the other team in the second game. It was close. We were trailing by one point near the end of the game.
During one play under those dangerous circumstances, one of our runners was declared “Out,” even though the second baseman totally bumbled the ball and didn’t have it in his mitt when the runner slid in under him. Our coach, eHarbor President John Russell, pointed out that serious flaw in the umpire’s call, and he was promptly thrown out of the game. It was quite a sight to see.
After that, things got even more exciting. With little time left, our batters were looking to smash a game-winning hit, but, ironically, all they had to do was stand next to the plate to win. The pitcher must have been really tired or had some crazy strategy because he just kept walking our batters until we scored two runs and won the game. That was awesome!
We ended this season with a record of 3-4. Our post-season begins on Wednesday, September 23 at 6 p.m. Whether we win or lose that game, we’ll play another one that same evening. I’ll let you know how we do. Go eHarbor!
