Sentences

I'm working on my next attempt at a novel and I have just written the two best sentences I have ever produced.  Here, let me share them with you.

"PING," the strange sound of metal bat on ball filled Nate with pride as he watched his third attempt sail lazily toward Amy, who looked in wonder as the ball carved its path toward her open glove.  Most of the team stopped what they were doing when they heard the ball being hit and watched as Amy moved into position under the fly, punched her fist into the glove, and fell in a heap to the ground as the ball hit her in the chest and settled on the outfield grass next to her empty glove."

Observation in good faith: sort of a clumsy repetition of 'glove', though, no?
