After Huck left Jim’s house he went home himself and had lunch, then he got a phone call from the Jim asking him to go out around 6:00 p.m. and play some baseball with him and Huck Finn said it sounded like a good idea and he would get some of his cousins to see if they wanted to go play with Jim and him. So it was about 5:30 and Huck Finn had 7 cousins gathered up at his house they’re names were: Tim, Carl, Kevin, Terry, Phil, Dave, and Tommy. By 5:45 they had all hopped into Huck’s pick up truck and were on their way to the baseball field at which they were playing at. When they got there, JIm was already there with his two brothers and they were taking some Batting Practice. Jim swung and missed on one and Huck Finn says “Woah, Jimmy-Boy thanks for the breeze”, Jim replied “Haha, funny we'll see who’s laughing after my team wins the game.
So the first pitch was set to be thrown at 6:15 p.m. Huck Finn and Jim had actually managed to get real umpires for the game. They got the umpires for free because one of Huck’s cousins was best friends with one of them so he called the umpire and he said yes and that he would get some of the other umpires that he works with. Jim’s two brothers names were: Steve and Paul. The teams couldn’t be evenly split since they had 11 so they had 5 on one team and 6 on another team. Huck Finn’s team had; Tim, Kevin, Phil, Tommy and Huck Finn himself. Jim’s team had: Carl, Terry, Dave, Steve, and Paul, and Jim himself.
The game had just gotten underway and the first pitch Jim sees from Huck he hits it out of the park so Jim’s team went up 1-0 quick in the 1st innings. They would go onto score 3 more and they were up 4-2 after the first 2 innings, thanks to Huck Finn’s 2 run homer in the 2nd inning. Jim’s team scored 6 runs in the 4th innings and went up 10-2 then Huck’s team scored 7 of their own in the bottom of the 4th inning and were only down 1 now, going into the Top of the 5th inning. They were playing a 7 inning game so Huck’s team still had a chance to win the game. JIm’s team needed to score a couple more insurance runs and they did just that thanks to JIm hitting his 2nd homerun of the day this time it scored 3 runs and they went up 13-9. Going into the bottom of the 7th it was the same score at 13-9, Huck’s team had work to do if they wanted to win the game or even tie it to send it to extra innings. They had runners on first and second with 1 out with Huck Finn coming up and the first one he sees he lines a double to left and that scores both the runners to make it 13-11. The next batter would go onto strikeout so now there was 2 outs and a guy on second base, with the teams best power hitter up. He would watch the first two pitches go in for a strike, then the 3rd one he drove pretty well to left field. Terry made an unbelievable catch to rob Tommy of a 2 run homer and the tie. That catch that Terry made had won Jim’s team the game!
After the game the teams were sitting around until it got dark, they were just laughing at some funny parts in the game they had just played and then they started to pack up their cars. As they were leaving the said goodbye and that they would do it next week and maybe make it a weekly thing.
THE,
END
