In last week’s Grand Rapids APBA League (GRAPBA) World Series Ernie Banks, playing for the eventual champion Bats, hit a three-run homer in his first at bat. He also homered in game five and in the Series clincher in game six.
The last homer came in his final at bat. So Ernie got to the post-season after all, and played on a winner. Even the losing skipper managed a smile. Willingly.
Thanks for sharing, guys.
