Whitmore Lake Softball Champions!

Sam and I have been playing softball on Tuesday nights through Whitmore Lake Community Recreation on a team composed primarily of teachers and their spouses. This past Tuesday was our last game. We already had the league title wrapped up, but this game played like a winner-take-all contest.
We were down bad (7-1) before bringing it back to within two, when our opponents bombed a grand-slam home run on us. At that point most of us figured we'd have a difficult time coming back again. However in the bottom of the final inning, we managed to score several runs to pull of the come-from-behind walk-off win.

We got t-shirts and a trophy for being the league champs.

woo hoo! Who gets to keep the trophy? Do you all get a day with it like the Stanley Cup? We should do a trophy tour: Bay City, Zeeland, Chicago - Isle Royale - Connecticut? Dad
