Was playing slo-pitch (beer league rec baseball), pitching. The other team was short one player, so when the missing player came up to bat, there would be an automatic out.

It’s bottom of the last inning and we’re tied, two outs. Batter in the box and “automatic out” is on deck. My shortstop says: “if you walk this batter, they cannot win.” I decline, and throw decent pitches - our thirdbaselady makes a perfect line drive catch to preserve the tie. Walking off the field, I say the the shortstop.

“I couldn’t do it. If I walk the batter, then after the game when I go touch myself – I wouldn’t have enjoyed it.” The bench dies laughing.
