Looks like our guy was safe at the plate by a mile as Ben’s hand is touching the plate when the catcher is still catching the ball. This was one of those game shifting calls….we would have been up 2-0 with one out, and just had our 4th hit in a row. It was a tough loss for sure, but we could not be more proud of each and every single one of these boys! These boys fought hard even with the odds stacked against them and showed us that their love and loyalty for one another will remain strong even when faced with adversity. Well done Grocery Boyz, well done! #mybrothers #wearefamily #groceryboyz
