It was the first time in my life that I walk-off home run so I was happy for myself and also happy that my team won.” It was great that the seniors had caught up to me in the previous inning. I was leading off, so I was determined to get on base somehow. count I was ahead in the first inning, so I decided to take the plunge and hit a ball, and it just so happened that I hit a home run.”
