Three Errors in the top of the 4th

Picture Perfect had bases-loaded,
scored one run, and seemed about
to have a BIG "Game-Winning Rally"
but it was not to be, as a good
hitter flied out to Joe Karam in
Short-Centerfield and then the
next good hitter lined out to
3rd Baseman Charlie Mellia for
the last out of the game.
