Holt U12 Brown Beats St. Johns In Last 2 Innings

Holt U12 Brown played at St. Johns last night.  At the top of the 5th,  St. Johns was up 6 – 2.  The text below is an actual account of the last two innings sent to a parent who couldn’t be at the game: 
 
“Grant just hit a double.  Great hit by Houston.  Grant scored a run.  Great hit by Dillon – 2 more runs!  Noahs up.  Noah walks and Ben is up to bat.  The score is now 6 – 6.  New pitcher – pause in the action.  Balls for Ben.  Noahs on 3rd.  Ben walks.  JP is up and gets a single.  Noah scores!  Ben steals 3rd a close call!  Phew, Griffin up with 2 men on base.  OMG – Grif with a triple line drive up the middle brings home Ben and JP!  Sweet sassy molassey!  Score is now 8 to 6 Holt!  They scored 7 but can only count 6.  Wow! Two great plays by Jesse, Grant and JP.  2 outs with a man on 2nd Grant pitching.  They just squeezed in a run.  Wow big hit out to center caught by Houston for third out!  We are still up by 1.  First batter strikes out.  JM up to bat and gets a single down the 3rd base line.  JM steals 2 nd then 3rd.  Hunter at 2nd.  Grant up to bat.  Grant brings Jacob and Hunter home and is safe at 1 st. “
