lyrics

It's 3pm and 90 degrees
I'm chasing down these fly balls, chasing down these dreams
For hours a day because winning was the theme
That came with the patches on the Williamsport team

Banners hang on walls for a reason
Trophies fill my dresser from the seasons

If I could go back to my only at-bat
In the championship with bases loaded
I'd take a crack at that first pitch I had
Instead of grounding out with bases loaded

Rounding bases and headed home
That team was a family I'd always know
That through it all they'd have my back
I was benched for the coach's son
I hit singles never hit home runs
But through it all I felt apart of the run

Our season died along with childhood dreams
Innings are merely memories in which we must redeem
Sixty feet up the line is much shorter than it seems
How I miss the days of the Williamsport team
