Mario's Game-Winning Home Run

It's a beautiful day at Mario Stadium where a baseball game is being held between the Mario Fireballs and the Bowser Monsters. The current score is 9-9 in the bottom of the ninth inning with Bowser pitching for the Monsters.

The stadium cheered as the Toad announcer said, "It's not over yet, folks. With two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning and the score tied at nine with nobody on base, it all comes down to Mario of the Mario Fireballs. He is perfect in his three appearances during the game with three home runs. Can he win it for the team? We're about to find out, right now!"

Mario stepped up to home plate with his red bat as Bowser prepares to pitch the ball. He threw a fastball at Mario and then, the ball reached Bowser Jr.'s glove as Mario missed his swing.

"Strike one!" Lakitu announced.

Then Bowser threw another fastball and Mario swung again, but he missed.

"Strike two!" Lakitu called.

Then Bowser threw it for the third time, and it was a ball.

Two pitches later, Mario kept his cool as he received two more balls. Now, it all comes down to this.

The Toad announcer looked at the screen and said, "Well folks, this is it. The count is 3-2 and with this next pitch, it could either win the game for the Fireballs, extend the game with a possible hit, or force extra innings. The crowd is standing up to their feet as we await the final pitch of the game. Hold on tight because here it comes!"

Bowser looked at Mario as he prepares to throw his fastball at Mario. Mario kept his eyes on the ball as he prepares to swing his bat.

The stadium grew very silent as Bowser pitched his fastball. This is it, the deciding pitch of the game.

Mario took his time, waited for the right moment to swing his bat, and then...

It is time.

CRACK!

Mario gave his bat a big swing as he made contact with the ball. The ball is sent flying high in the sky as Mario saw it all.

After a few moments, the ball left the stadium as Lakitu announced the two words to the crowd.

"HOME RUN!"

The entire stadium cheered very loudly as Mario ran around the bases for his home run.

When Mario reached home plate, it's official. The game is won by the Mario Fireballs thanks to him. The final score: 10-9.

Bowser smiled at Mario and said, "Great game, Mario!"

"Thanks, Bowser," Mario replied as they shook hands for good sportsmanship. It has been a great day.
