Cool story from game 2 in the stands in front of Addyson Foster’s family
They’re very passionately cheering on the Hokies and when Addy popped up a couple time they were bemoaning how she looked frustrated and she “pops up to left” quite a bit when struggling. Well when we had it to 6-1 and were at the bottom of the order I turned and said…”we’re going to get a couple baserunners on and Addy will walk it off for us with the run rule.” Well sure enough the bases were loaded and Addy drove one to the wall. Only the stop sign at 3rd (correctly applied) kept me from being prophetic. We all went nuts once she hit that to the wall, high fives all around and that was the big blow that pretty much clinched game 2 Friday making it 8-1. So much fun!
And by the way…I sure wish I hit .400+ when I struggled in baseball 😝
