1971 Stamford CT, Town Little League Championship Semi-Final, (I was on K of C), I was a 10 year old in a 10-12 year old league and scared shitless. Everyone had to play one inning. Team we were playing was 19-0 as were we and their pitcher was seriously like 6-2 and had struck out 14 by the end of fifth. Our pitcher was smoking too and it was 0-0. This was a time when Stamford, CT had great little league and Babe Ruth teams that had won several Babe Ruth US championships (they hosted many championships too) in the 50's and 60's. I had no chance of hitting this kid but my father had focused on teaching me how to bunt and really used to fire them in when we practiced. Bottom of the 6th we somehow get a guy to third base and I am up with 1 out. No one had much hope I would do anything other than either get hit by a ptich and killed or strike out looking. I bunt on the first pitch and we score and win. Unbeleivable. I don't think I had a true hit that entire year.
