There's nothing like it in sports. The visitors sullenly leave the field, while the hosts -- suddenly victorious -- congregate around the irregular pentagon that is home plate.
Men become boys. All that matters is first base, second base, third base, and, to a hero's welcome, home.
Long live the walk-off home run. Especially to avoid a sweep, on a sunny Sunday afternoon in September.

That was an awesome moment and your words and the picture sum it up perfectly.
For some reason, I especially love the walk-off wins on a Sunday afternoon. It's such a great way to end the week.
The best way to end a week: a walk-off home run. I'm in full agreement, Ian.
The worst way to begin a week: lose to the Baltimore Orioles.
