He's safe!!!!
That's an inside the park
homerun for Tucker!

Base hit to center for Potpie

Gazelle fouls off the bunt attempt
The count goes to 1 and 2, we'll have
to see if they keep the bunt play on

Gazelle swings at the fastball...
And hits this deep...
Duffy can forget it, it's way out of here
That was an incredible blast!
It traveled at least 490
feet from home plate!
That hit belongs on all the
replays of the week

Turn of Century bullpen
He's waving his right arm

Swung on and missed by Pflaggstettler,
he's down on strikes
That is 2 on the day for Pflaggstettler
Two away now here
in the top of the ninth
A real lopsided contest
There are only a handful of fans
left in the ballpark
The bad weather and the score
have sent them all home early...

Nights hits a shallow fly
towards Sam Crawford
Crawford charges, dives...
He's got it!
Good play by Crawford
That will do it for FOFC
Nip-and-tuck here at Yellowstone
Park this evening
Turn of Century coming in
for their last shot
They need 6 to tie, and only 7 to win!
No problem...

There's a check swing by Crawford
It's a high pop in foul territory
It looks playable
Harry Hays makes the catch
against the stands
That's one away for the Centurions
Turn of Century is 6 and 4
in their last ten games
Things don't look too bright for
Turn of Century tonight

Off speed pitch on the way...
And Collins watches it go
by for the third strike
Collins stood there like a bump on a log
2 strike outs for Collins today
That's two quick outs for Sammy Knowles
Turn of Century will need
to do better than that
They are running out of time

A wave and a miss!
Strike Three!
And that will do it for Turn of Century
FOFC wins 11 to 5
Nielsen gets credit for the win
Knowles notches the save
Waddell takes the loss
The hitting star for FOFC
was A. J. Tucker
He was 2 for 5 with a homerun
And that wraps things up
So long from Turn of Century.
