It's a term made up by ESPN to describe a homerun that wins a game. Only the home team can hit a "walkoff homerun" and it must be hit in the 9th inning or later in the game.
it means like when you let Jesus into your heart-the job is done
you hit a home run win the game-and you dont hang out where the other team is-you walk off the field, and onto everwhat
this is what helped me get my walk off home run with God=Happy day, and a Lady said this to me="this is a good greeting. I can give you something that will make you think.One should not mistake the statement that "God is love"God does not condemn those who do not seek his love according to his mercy. Gods definition of Love is simply his mercy. With out love. read 1 John 4 Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Not that we loved God but he loves us and sent his Son as a atonement and sacrifice for our sins. God gives us his Spirit.That is when we love one and another. God lives in us and that love is made complete.
Source(s):
Perfect love cast out fear.There is no fear in love. We love because God loved us first. So when you expect that from others and it does not happen be it parents,associates, brothers or sisters. With God his love has always been unconditional God loves just because. And gives mercy just because. All you need but ask,he is always knocking at the door of ones heart. His commands are not burdensome,for everyone born of God overcomes the world,even our faith. Who is it that overcomes,only he that believes that Jesus is the son of the living God!
have a nice week :D
I like what you said so I would like to share this=Hey Precious! You've got a lot on your mind this morning. That's a good thing... God wants you to examine and ask questions. Jeremiah 33:3 says for us to call on Him and He will tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know. You said something that caught my eye: "It's very hard to understand a good parent when all you've had to go on is an abusive example telling you what makes sense and what feels good." . It has taken me years to understand why God could love a person like me, yet we have parents or others that have not acted this way to us. I have to look at my father ... and then look beyond him ... he isn't capable of giving what he doesn't have for himself. On the other hand, God can ... because He created you princess ... He thought the world would be a better place with you in it ... and He was right! I feel you're top-shelf material ...
the big picture-your in the center of it
do you mind if I wish you the happiest day of your life?
princess you are nice-thanks
if you spend your life as I did--its empty/a wasted life-To the princess, have a happy blessed week :D Believe the Prince of Peace "Unto us will be born a child, a son will be given, and he will be almighty God and the prince of peace." Isaiah 9:6 He is Jesus the Messiah my Savior and our best friend if we let Him.
Be in life blessed. What helped me most was His unconditional love; Jesus cares heart and soul for you, me and all = "I love you and knock on your heart door to come in forgive and deliver from sin (even one lie) and become your friend, if you repent and ask me in to your heart." Revelation 3:19&20 so I prayed peace/salam "I am sorry for my sins, come into my heart and help me be my friend, amen" Now I thank Jesus every day for being my best friend! :D
peace Salam/Shalom I am born Jewish, and to you this day in Isaiah 52:13-53:12 our Messiah- the prince of peace God almighty the son given Isaiah 9:6 again thanks for your smile princess beauty - peace be upon thee, David
Here I sit on a Hill;
who could blame me, cry my fill;
Every tear happy & sad sharing the Gospel,
I gave my heart, to give how I feel,
to share Jesus love the Bible shield;
So in love he is sealed,
Oh my princess to find, oh, my love,
sharing promise in Jesus of the rainbow, sharing peace in Jesus of the dove.
my only true love for now as a soldier for Jesus in my heart and above.
Have purpose in life-"Life on earth twill soon be past only what is done for Jesus will last."
have a happy week, go for the walk off home run and the right princess too David
Which pitcher do you think is the best batter?
What most people wrote above is correct, but I think you may be asking "why?"Major League Baseball games are set up in a 9-inning format, with extra innings to break tied games. The visiting team bats first, at the "top" of the inning and the home team bats last at the "bottom" of the inning.
Fast forward to the end of the 8th inning. If the home team is ahead, the visiting team will have one last chance to tie or lead the game in the 9th inning. If they fail to tie or lead, the home team does not go to bat in the 9th, as they are already winning and any runs scored would be moot, not affecting the outcome of the game. Whether you win by 1 run or 10 runs, it's still a win.
Now, if the visiting team scores runs to tie the game or lead the game, the home team will come to the plate after recording the 3rd out. At this point, they have just this 1 inning to tie or win. If, at this point, the home team scores enough runs to take the lead, the game ends even though the visiting team did not collect the 3rd out.
A walk-off homerun is when a batter for the home team hits a home-run that breaks a tie or gives his team the lead in the 9th or in extra innings. Once he has run the bases, the game is over and the players walk off the field. And yes, the batter DOES still have to run the bases.
I need HELP bad !Can you tell me how to play all the bases in softball and how to bunt?
It means your hit knocks in the winning run they started saying that back in the early years of baseball when a team would have a power hitter that they could bring in theres what a walk off homerun or hit meansWhat constitues a "hold" in baseball?
it means that you hit a home run and walk off the field without running the bases. Just swing and walk to the dugout.Has there ever been a better SS/2B duo than Mark Lemke and Jeff Blauser?
The last at bat was a home run in the bottom of the last inning of play. there is no need to have any of the last outs made by the defensive team, so you walk off as the winner.A "walk off" isn't necessarily a HR. It's any play that allows the winning run to score in the bottom of the 9th or bottom of a subsequent inning.
Yes, that means that a pitcher can issue (or the batter can have the eye to take) a "walk off" walk. That's how Kenny Rogers ended the Mets post-seaon in 1999. It's also how Todd Stottlemyre won his first SHO.
Even if it's a HR, all of the runners, including he batter-runner, must touch every bag, including the plate. That's the derivation of the phrase "touch 'em all" - a HR isn't a HR unless the batter-runner touches every base. If you can get your hands on a copy of the end of Game 6 of the '93 WS, you'll not only see Joe Carter, jumping around the bases and very deliberately jump on each bag and the plate (while the late Tom Cheek screamed into his mike "Thouch 'em all, joe. You'll never hit a bigger hone run in your life!), you'll also see each base umpire and the plate umpire watch him do so, and leave the field, one at a time, as the on-field portion of their jobs for the season were done. You'll also see the Phillies players walk off the field, as there is no way to defend against a HR. Yes, Mitch WIlliams walked off the field with his head held high - saying with his body language "I did my very best, and I simply got beaten with it. I did nothing to be ashamed of."
BTW, in Japan, a walkoff HR is called a "sayonara" or "goodbye".
