Gotta Stay Focused: High School Baseball Team Suffers Championship Loss After Premature Celebration!
Written by ABR on 29/05/2023
Hornell high school?s baseball team was leading by one run during the Section V Class B1 championship game against Palmyra-Macedon high school. With Palmyra-Macedon down to its final strike, Hornell?s pitcher managed to strike out the opposing hitter for the final out of the game. The pitch, however, wasn?t caught by the catcher. Instead of throwing to first base as would typically occur on a dropped third strike, the Hornell squad began celebrating its championship victory. Amid the celebrations, Palmyra-Macedon?s baserunners became aware that the play was still considered live and they proceeded to round the bases and score the game-winning run. Posted By Persist
