Sorry, proud Dad moment. Official oldest daughter of Env-Econ (OODEE) played her first HS softball game yesterday (freshman on Varsity). She pitched two innings in relief, after a strong outing from the starter. Came in in the 6th inning down 2-1. Faced 7 batters, struck out 4 and gave up one hit (a bunt). OODEE came to the plate in the bottom of the 7th (last inning in softball) with the bases loaded, one out, tie score. Lined a shot off the pitcher's ribs (or knee, depending on who you ask) that ended up in shallow right field. Winning run scored. Nothing like a pitcher helping herself at the plate.
Here's the box score from the Columbus Dispatch.
Franklin Heights 010 010 0 — 2 6 1
Dublin Jerome 010 000 2 — 3 9 1
Siemer and Edwards; Ciminillo, Haab (6) and Hirth. W: Haab.
