Austin started out the baseball season with a very broken leg. He had a cast that went from his toes all the way to his hip. He couldn't practice with his team, but instead had to watch from the sidelines. After 4 weeks of the long cast, he was finally put in a walking cast. He finally was able to start playing a little baseball. The coaches told him that if he could get to 1st base then he would be able to swich out and let someone else run for him. He did this for another 3 weeks. He was a little behind on his batting and didn't do that much hitting. But when he needed to he really came through, he sure did. His team made it to the finals and they were playing to see who was going to play in the championship game for trophys. Austin was up to bat with 2 strikes against him and he finally hit the ball - scoring the 2 winning runs. His team ended up winning 2nd place and getting awesome trophys. His coach has also posted his winning hit on YouTube. just type in Padres winning hit and you will be able to watch it!!!
