It was a sunny evening on May 4,2015 when the Astros and the Diamondbacks faced off.
Our player of the game, number 4 Landon Heslip, from the Astros played a great game. It was a no-hit game up until the second inning when a Diamondback hit the ball into Landon’s direction at short stop. Landon reached into the air and caught the ball for an out.
Landon was on his toes that evening, wherever the ball was, he was there. A Diamondback stole third and Landon was thrown the ball just a little too late to get him out, but he still made a great effort and an amazing catch.
Now batting, Landon was on first base when his teammate hit a single, moving him to second; however he was feeling gutsy and sprinted all the way to third and made it!
It was a tough game that went back and forth between the Astros and the Diamondbacks, but ultimately the Diamondbacks prevailed with a nail biting score of 11-10.
