It was a hot summer night br In the middle of July. br There were two outs in the 9th inning br And the Wildcats were two runs away from winning. br They had men on 2nd and 3rd, br But their chances of victory seemed quite absurd. br Cause up came Blinky McGee br Much to the Bulldogs' glee. br His batting average had take a nosedive br And he was 0 for his last 55. br Blinky hadn't swung a bat since the end of May br And some wished that he'd keep it that way. br Now the count was 0 and 2 br When Blinky asked for time to tie his shoe. br Then the pitcher delivered a breaking ball br And Blinky swung hard towards the leftfield wall. br Everyone just stopped and stared br As he doubled down the leftfield line, just fair. br Blinky went from being a zero br To becoming the ballgame's hero.
