It doesn’t make the local team look good with the other team scoring and all, but it’s a nice home plate collision shot. If only the ball was in the lower right of the frame below the catcher and not high above the two players where I cropped it out. Such is life.

With his helmet flying off after colliding with Chief catcher Bobby Yager (right), Lexington player Stuart Long is safe at home during the fourth inning of Saturday (7/12/08) afternoon’s game at Ryder Park. Chief went on to win the game in the middle of the fifth inning by mercy rule, 10-2.
