After completing six and a half innings, we head into the bottom of the final inning as the Aquinas Blugolds are ahead of Lake Country Lutheran 4-2. As a young child around the age of 5, I started playing baseball, and just like almost every little boy or girl, I always had that dream about making the game-winning shot in basketball or making that diving catch to win the state championship in baseball.

Alex went into the game and had a 1,2,3 inning, so he retired the guys in order, ending the game and sending us to the state final to play Lake Country
