What kids dream of is being in that situation and then winning. The other possibility is the other kind of fantasy.
It is beyond me to think that someone as young as any of these pitchers can have the self-confidence (arrogance? chutzah? onions?) to actually go out there and throw the pitch. I think that's more remarkable than any play or score.
