Game Summary In a back and forth battle, the A's and Orioles went into extra innings tied at five. Charlie S. went the first four innings giving up three runs for the A's and Noah S. shut the A's down for the first three innings. Seth B. went the final four for the A's. Clutch hitting on the A's came from Spyq S., Noah N., Zach L.M and Johnny H. Both Gary R-O, and Scott B led the Orioles with three hits a piece.

With the score tied 5-5 in the top of the 8th inning, the A's loaded the bases only to have Jeremy ('the Babe') H. hit a grand slam home run over the center field fence. The A's were up 10-5 going into the bottom of the 8th. The Orioles quickly scored a run and loaded the bases with no outs. With all the runners moving, Max K. hit a smash to Seth B. who dove and came up with the ball in his glove (one out). In a bizarre and confusing play the ball went from Seth B.to home plate, (not an out here) where Josh F. fired to his brother Gabe F. covering second base (second out) who flipped the ball back to Seth B. who then threw to 3rd base (third out) for the triple play and the end of the game!!!
