I have never, in all my years of softball, EVER seen an actual tie.
Especially when I'm calling the game.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!
Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!
I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
