Think of the Time You Won Something

When I use to play softball, I given each game all I have got. I specifically remember pitching out an entire team before in different innings, and was highly praised for that. In a particular game, which was the last game of the season, my teammates and I were going up a group of muscular, stern-looking, "women". We were not discourage, rather we were worried about their powerful hits and their use of deceptiveness. The first girl approached the base, I told in field to come closer just in case the batter decided to hit a bunt, and out field to back up just in case the batter was a "hard hitter." I swung with power and skill; luckily, I got the first batter out easy, but when I got to the fourth batter, two bases were filled and I could not afford to swing another ball. Each batter tried tricking me with their bunt stance, but it didn't work. I still threw hard just as I have before, and it turns out they were caught off guard and striked out. That was the only thing that was keeping my team from losing. It continued this way throughout the rest of the game, and, to my surprise, we lost. Turns out one of my teammates made a bad move on 3rd base. They thought they could make it home, but were striked out instead.
Though, we received a trophy in appreciation  for our hard work in the game. :)
