...a friend on Facebook posted a link to one of the finest stories of athletic sportsmanship and general decency I have ever read. When a young woman hits her first home run in her last possible game in sport it's pretty spiffy.

P.S. Despite what it says above the video, these are college students. Western Oregon and Central Washington are in the NCAA Division II.
