Reply to "Arrogant and Cocky"

Story from when Arrogant and Cocky backfired....

This happened to another pitcher but on our team, Mr BigTime P5commit goes yard on a clearly outmatched pitcher.  Thinking he's just hit his second homer of the day, Mr BigTime does a huge bat flip and starts to jog his big leaguer trot, except before he can get to first, the ball pulls foul.  Granted, it's still a bomb, but it's foul.  Mr. BigTime gets back in the batters box but not before responding to his teammates "Watch this, I'm gonna hit it OVER the school (building that sits pretty tight to the of fence)". Well that poor pitcher, who tops out at 78, threw what must have been the best slider of his life (for a ball in the opposite batter box) except Mr BigTime was too busy swinging for the building to notice.  Literally fell to his knee.  Ended the inning and stranded two runners. Cocky and arrogant. One of these kids will play at the next level, but that other kid will remember THAT moment forever
