Two Strikes On Johnny
“Shortstop Stevie Little caught the ball on a bounce, whipped it to first. The ball was high and wide. First baseman Freddie Turner stepped off the bag, nabbed the ball, then touched the runner before he reached first.
“Out!” yelled the base umpire.
The second batter bunted a ball down to third. Davie Randall ran hard after it. He tried to field it, but he slipped on the grass and just sat there. He pounded the ball disgustedly against the ground, then rose to his feet. The batter was st...anding on first base, grinning.
“Let's get a double, Davie!” Stevie Little yelled, pounding his fist into his glove.
Davie motioned Butchie to play in closer at third. Then he stepped into the box, made his stretch, and threw. The batter stuck out his bat for a bunt. He missed.
“Strike one!” said the umpire.
The runner on first had started for second.MoreLess
