The air in Lexington is electric, charged with the palpable excitement of high school football playoffs! The Lexington Yellow Jackets have officially punched their ticket, clinching a coveted playoff berth, and the best part? Their first-round game will be played right here at home. Their initial opponent will be West Stanley High School of Stanley County, and if Head Coach Charles Morman's enthusiasm is any indication, the Yellow Jackets are more than ready to defend their hive.
Then came the bottom of the seventh inning, a moment that will forever be recounted in Lexington baseball lore. With the score still deadlocked and the tension almost unbearable, Roman Keith stepped up to the plate. The crowd collectively held its breath, the rhythmic thud of the beach balls silenced, replaced by a singular, focused hum of anticipation. Keith, known for his clutch hitting, took a deep breath, eyes locked on the pitcher. The first pitch was a blur, a fastball that whizzed by for a strike. The second, a breaking ball, was fouled off. With two strikes, the stadium went utterly silent, every fan willing the ball to find the sweet spot of Keith’s bat.
