Keywords, thrown at you.
Your curve balls, they don't cur.
Oh no, dad and his curve balls.
You just scared. But lucky for y
I'm here to get that fear out of.
All right, get in your batter st.
Elbow up, head straight. And remember swing level.
What are you doing son?
You got to stay in the batter's.
But the ball was coming at me.
It's a curve ball.
It's gonna do that. We go through this every time.
Chase, stop running from the pit.
Now you gonna stay in that box or I'm going to get my belt.
All right. This one gonna be a normal fastball.
Get under it. Get under it. Good.
Good hit.
Now let's see what you can do with this curve.
- Hey mom, you're home early. - Hey mom.
Hey my babies. How was practice?
Dad hit Chased with the ball.

What happened? What happened to.
Dad hit me with the ball and forced me not to move.
Hollis, this is not the major le.
He'll be all right.
I'm just trying to teach him some toughness.
You're teaching him trauma.
I have a surprise for you.
Now don't eat this before dinner
I don't want you to spoil your appetite, okay.
Hey, I thought you was hurt.
I tell you all the time. Be a coach to the kids at school.
Be a dad to the kids at home.
You know what you was getting when you said yes.
Coaching is supposed to be sea so
but with you it's year round.
We have football in the fall, basketball in the winter,
softball in the spring,
and baseball in the summer. Befo
you'll just be known as coach instead of your real name.
Hey, I left my phone in the truc.
Thanks coach.
See what I mean?
What time are we supposed to be at the church tonight?
5:30. So I need everybody to sho
and eat, so that we can be on ti.
- Food smells good babe. - Can't say the same about you.
Side to side.
Stop.
Chase, what are you doing? That was your part.
Sorry, I forgot.
You didn't forget. You weren't paying attention.
Clowning with your cousin. This is ministry
everyone, now puppets up.
- They ready for you? - Okay everyone,
let's get into positions.
Now you two, once that song ends
I expect those puppets to come d.
Okay? No horse play. Do you unde.
Yes mam. No horse play. Let's go.
Well good afternoon!
- How's everybody doing? - Good. Wait, wait, wait.
We can do better than that. Let's try that again.
- How's everybody doing? - Good.
All right. All right.
All right. That's better. That's.
So we're continuing today's topic on God's love.
Who in here can tell me what God's love is?
Oh, Mr. Hollis. Wait, wait. Hold on kids.
Y'all hear that sound?
Over here?
I don't see anything kids.
I'm right here.
Wait, I don't see anything kids.
I knew it.
I knew it. It's Pam.
I'm trying to teach a lesson to
and girls about God's love.
You interrupting me.
Oh, I'm sorry Mr. Hollis.
But I have the perfect song that reminds me of God's love.
You do. I do.
People are calling me constantly talking about the
car is worth $6,000.
No it ain't. It's 60,000.
Well let us hear it.
We never gonna get it, that's why we always second.
Hey, I gotta go. I don't have time. I gotta call you back.
I said I lift my hands, - I lift
I said I life my voice, - I lift
I dance and shout.
I said I lift my hands.
I lift my voice.
I dance and shout for all the things he has done for me.
We come to praise him.
We come to lift him up.
Won't you join us and praise his.
Hey. Sorry about the delay.
It's all good brother.
So you heard about the new
baseball park they building?
You talking about the one on the north side of town.
Is it finished?
Yes. They had a big ribbon cutting ceremony today.
You went by there.
Come on man.
You know they didn't build that park for us.
I saw it on my phone.
Hmm?
The word is. They had a couple of private
funded the whole thing.
To be honest with you, I don't really care about
having a new baseball park.
All I need is a dugout with some cover on it.
What's the point of having a dug
and you still in the sun?
Hot, sweaty, musty. We don't nee.
Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
Could you go up there
and get your son, look at him.
Yep. And your son too.
Let them keep playing and doing.
You gonna mess around and catch the Holy Ghost for real
up in here.
Hey, over there?
No, no. With the batters.
Yeah, you go with the pitcher.
There he is. Ha ha.
- What's going on coach? - What's up coach? Nothing
I'm still tripping out on that play call you made in the.
Play action on fourth and goal. Nobody saw that coming.
Well I'll be lying to you if I said I wasn't a
little nervous on that call.
Sometimes J.R. be overthrowing those short passes.
Sometimes. Ha ha.
They need him over at the high s.
You ever thought about coaching there?
All the time. But you know how they have.
More like picks and loses.
Hey, so what would you coach the.
Cause I doubt they let you coach both.
Definitely basketball. I just do the other sports
cause nobody else wants the job.
Nobody else wants the headache e.
You gotta be called by God to do what you do.
Dealing with all them kids.
But I will admit my man, you do a good job with those kids.
You turn 'em into winners.
What's going on out here?
Seems like we little short.
Yeah, I'm noticing that too.
We didn't have many pre-register this year,
so I was hoping we'd get a bunch of walk ups.
Well if this is it, I don't think we even have enough
for two full teams this summer.
Looks like somebody might be los.
Be nice. He may be here for tryouts.
Ah, you funny.
The Bible say to treat others
how you'd wanna be treated.
And?
So I'm going to treat them like they treat us.
Excuse me.
Look at this, beautiful out isn't it?
Hey, how can I help you sir?
Hey, how you doing sir? My name is Steve.
The kids call me Coach Steve.
Nice to meet you.
What is it that you want, Steve?
Well I'm looking to see if I cou
talk to whoever's in charge.
That would be me.
And what is this about?
Well, I'm sure you guys have heard about the new baseball
park that was just built in the.
The mayor's trying to merge all the little leagues together.
- Little? - Well other leagues.
The mayor's trying
to merge all the other leagues together within the city
into one.
Here you go. Check it out.
You not from here, huh?
- What give it away? - Rich folk usually don't
invite us to their stuff.
- Especially new stuff. - Especially new stuff.
Huh?
We have several groups of people involved in this merger.
When is the tryouts?
Well actually the deadline, technically the deadline
to sign up was at the end of business day today.
However, we got word
that not everybody was informed about the new league.
So that got me out here hitting the local parks,
spreading the word so to speak.
Sound like an attempt to block unwanted press to me.
Yo dad, you see that.
Look at that.
Absolutely son. Whose son is that?
That's my son.
Is that right? Really? Wanna make sure you get a flyer?
Take two.
My son out there too. Can I get.
Oh absolutely. There you go.
So how you think I did today?
You did good son, did good.
Some areas you still need to imp
but overall I think you did pret.
- What areas? - Ground balls.
You still showing a little timidness there.
Oh, and your throws can be a little more accurate.
Well we know who to blame there, Mr. Curve ball.
What's this? Wow, look at these.
They look just like the real teams and the fields,
they look brand new.
Did you get this from the man at.
Yep. They're starting a new le.
- Can I play? - I don't think that's a good id.
Plus we're already playing on Coach Roy's league.
What if we get everybody in our league to join this one?
I don't think it's that simple s.
Hey baby. How was tryouts?
Not good?
A lot of the kids didn't sign up this year.
We barely had enough for three t.
That's not enough to put on a le.
Yeah, I know. Then there's this.
Supposedly the mayor is trying to merge all
of the summer leagues into one main league.
So where will they play the game.
The new park.
Baby. You know they didn't build.
I know what you're thinking.
And it's not that.
One of the their coaches stopped by tryouts today.
A goofy little fella.
- He must not be from here? - He's not.
Hello?
Okay, bye. That was Coach Roy?
They're canceling the league. Not enough participants.
Did he say anything about the new league?
He said he wasn't fooling with I.
He's getting bad vibes about the whole thing.
So what are we going to do now?
I don't know, but I'll go talk to Chase.
Hey son. What you doing?
Getting ready for bed.
You read your chapter for today?
Just doing it now. How come you got me reading.
Proverbs every night?
Don't you want me to learn about the other books?
Yeah, you can read the other boo.
I just want you to create a habit of reading Proverbs.
Proverbs is considered the book.
You know this stuff is over my head, right?
I think I'm too young to underst.
Possibly.
But you can always ask God
for understanding and just keep.
One of these days you're gonna g.
So you think you want to play in this new league?
Yeah. It looks like fun. I could play in both.
Well, coach Roy's league has been canceled.
Even better.
I mean, more the reason to join.
Your mom and I care about you so.
We're just concerned about other people's intentions and
how that may affect you.
I'll be fine. I'm learning from the best.
Nobody can stop me from being the next Aaron Judge.
- How can I help you sir? - Yeah, I'm here
to sign up my son and nephew for the summer league.
So you didn't pre-register?
No mam. We just found out about the league yesterday.
Coach Steve came by and he...
I'm sorry sir.
I'd love to chitchat and all
but I'm on a tight schedule.
I have to get all of these kids' names recorded,
put in the system and seen by the coaches today.
I take care of it. So Coach Steve himself came by
yesterday, set us up.
That's why we didn't get a chanc.
- That really doesn't matter. - Look, do me a favor. Fill out.
Have a seat in the bleachers.
And wait until their names are c.
Can y'all do that for me?
Come on guys, let's go.
Looks like they do a hitting drill, a fielding drill,
and they look like they throw a couple pitches.
Is this how they pick the teams?
Yep. Those must be the coaches right there.
Just sit tight and wait until our name is called.
Alright.
Hey there you guys are. You ma.
Yeah, little man forced my hand.
Was it the jerseys?
It was the jerseys. The new fiel.
It was everything.
But what are you doing over here?
This is where the lady told us t.
Diane?
Yes, her.
She takes her job just a little too serious.
She's a character.
That's Coach Mick's mom.
Coach Mick runs the place. They think they're big shots.
If she told you to sit here, then you're in the right spot.
So you just need to wait until your son's name is called.
That should be good. Yeah.
You know how long that's gonna b.
Shouldn't be long. Good luck out there. I'll see ya.
Chase Stewart, Tim Reed, Sammy.
Hey, yo?
It's been two hours?
And I've been here five.
- Go get 'em boys. - Remember what I taught y'all.
I'll be right here the whole tim
I'll be right... I'll be right h.
Hey, sorry we ran outta time t.
But you will be put on a team.
All right.
Hey, what's going on?
Sorry. Unfortunately we ran outta time today.
What do you mean outta time?
The kids who didn't get a chance.
Don't do that. Don't do that please. These are just kids.
Who is this guy?
Hollis Stewart.
Who are you?
- I'm coach Mick Rose. - League commissioner.
Hollis Stewart. He's the coach at the middle school
for basketball and football.
Alright? I'll handle this. Can you finish here?
Come on kids.
My boy's been here all day.
We literally watched every kid t.
Some of these kids even showed up after us.
Coach. I understand. I've been here all day too.
We're really overwhelmed this year with the merger
and we're tired. So I called it.
These kids have waited for ho...
Can we at least give them some e
I hate that all the kids didn't get to try out,
but they will be put on a team.
This is not just about being put on a team!
If you don't calm down, these tr
gonna be the least of your probl.
Tell me exactly what does that supposed to mean?
It means that your boys won't be playing ball at all..
Like they said,
they didn't build this field for.
Get him!
Hey you guys. Guys.
Wait, just hold your horses.
I understand that the walk ups g
was poor planning.
This whole idea was poor plann.
Thanks for the invitation.
Hey, come on. Your kid is good.
He needs to play and plus not being seen today
kind of works out in our favor.
I'm the only one that has seen C.
So it should be no problem getting him on my team.
What about my nephews?
Ah, it may be tough trying to ge.
But I'll do what I can.
I'm hungry y'all. Let's go get something to eat.
All right fellas. See ya.
They like me.
Okay, the Indians have the nex
I'll take Jonathan Smith.
All right, Jonathan Smith has been added to your roster.
We have one name left from the ones who tried out today.
So that goes to you coach Mick, Isaac Jones.
Isaac Jones. Got it.
So now we have the kids that didn't try out.
How do y'all wanna handle this?
I say we just put the names in the hat and we pull.
Now why would we do that Coach.
No one saw these kids tryout S.
Choosing names would be pointles.
What if someone here knows one of the kids?
Does anyone know any of the walk ups from today?
Steve, is there someone that you want on your team?
Well, I'm glad you asked.
I was hoping to get the Steward.
You talking about the kid whos
was acting like a fool today.
- That's a great idea. - That means I don't have
to deal with his nonsense.
Why do you want the Stewart kid on your team?
I just want him to feel welcomed
I mean, isn't that what this league is all about?
I have no doubt in my mind that every person in this room
is capable of making Coach Stewart and his son
feel welcome. Pull the names.
Pirates, Johnny Kite.
Braves, Reese Helps.
Bengals, Tommy Williams.
Indians, Sammy Wallace.
Tigers, Tim Reed.
Tribe...
Chase Stewart.
Well it looks like you got you.
Well.
Is it possible I can get Tim Reed on my team as well?
The boys are family.
Come on Steve, what's your pla.
I think you're hiding something.
No, just trying to adhere
to the parents' request. That's.
Now you know we don't do that.
But considering this is a merger
and we want everything to go smo
I'll give you Mr. Reed.
Only if you let me have Trey Car.
- Trey Carter, come on. - He's the best on my roster.
Not to mention my relief pitcher.
I haven't even seen this kid Tim.
If you want 'em, that's the trade. Take it to leave it.
Hey bud. You got a second?
Just wanted to check on you,
see how you was doing after today's tryouts.
Why didn't we try out?
They ran long, wasted a lot of time at the beginning
and wasn't able to see everyone.
Is that why you were fussing?
Your dad has a quick temper that he's working on.
It's okay because I was a little nervous anyway.
Chase, you are way better than those kids.
What you should be nervous about is me beating you
up on this game.
Okay, let's go.
Hey guys, welcome to the tribe.
It's nice to officially meet you Chase. I'm Coach Steve.
Put it there pal. I'm thrilled to have you on our team.
Thanks coach.
Now go ahead and get out there on the field
and warm up with the rest of you.
Go ahead sport.
So looks like we're missing one,
Yeah. Tim's dad is not as forgiving as me.
You mean Tim's not playing? You gotta be kidding me.
I traded one of my top players f.
If it's points you worried about
you won't have any problems with Chase on your team.
Oh yeah. This is the guy I was telling you about.
I'm Alex, coach Steve's son.
I saw you hit the other day. You're pretty good.
But I mean, let's see how you do against Mick Junior.
Who's Mick Junior?
You don't know Mick Jr.?
Mick Jr. is the best pitcher in the league.
Don't worry about it though.
You'll find out in the season op.
Let, let me, let me jump in. Let me jump in.
Let me apologize for that. I, I know it was a mistake.
It was a typo. The website is missing a zero.
They put it in wrong. Okay.
They hit the backspace, didn't do something right.
I don't know, but it's 60,000. Say it with me. Sixty.
See how it sounds better. Sounds realistic. Sixty.
Oh no, you, no. Yeah, you, you can definitely come on down
um, with the 6,000
but just make sure somebody right behind you
with the other 54,000. That's right.
Now that'll be the deal, won't I Alright, I gotta go now. Thank.
Thank you.
Hey girls.
Hey uncle Benny.
Man, y'all kids growing up fast.
So who's all looking for a car t.
Is it Raven and Renee too?
- Renee too. - Alright, good.
I got a two for two deal going on right now. All right.
You buy one. You buy one, two fo.
Raven, what you looking for toda
I'm looking for something all black, automatic start...
Fast.
Fast and...
Affordable.
Look at that car!
Affordable to me might be expensive to you.
What's your price range?
Is zero a price range?
No it's not.
Well, to be honest, we really don't have the money.
But with Raven starting her sophomore year in college
she really needs a car
I understand. Let's go look.
So how's it looking?
Not promising. We have pinched every penny
in trying to afford a car for Ra.
We just don't have the money to.
What about trying to finance it?
I mean we can do that,
but with the interest rates,
we just dig ourselves into a dee.
And don't forget, Raven's scholarship doesn't
cover housing either.
What if we stop tithing for a fe.
That will save us a couple head a.
I don't wanna do that. We just going through a rough patch.
We stay faithful, God will open the door for us.
I need that door to open now.
After practice, they told us the players is gonna have
to pay $250 in fees.
Two hundred and fifty dollars!
We didn't spend that much on Chase for his birthday.
Yeah I know, it's supposed to be for uniforms, insurance
and some other things, so...
I wrote them a check.
To what account? Oh yeah.
Let's pray because we need that door open now.
Good morning. We want to welco
everyone to the new youth park.
Now the purpose of this beautiful venue is to ensure
that all children, regardless of
or skill level, have a safe plac.
And you know the best part of it all, you didn't have
to pay one cent for it.
So, I hope that is taken into consideration
when it's time for re-election.
Now I want to go ahead
and hand this over to the brains
of the operation coach Mick.
Thank you Mayor. And you have my vote.
Thank you.
For those who don't know me, I'm Coach Mick Rose.
I'm the lead commissioner and we are very excited about
today as we kick off the brand n
league here at the youth park.
But before we get kicked off to
on behalf of the youth league, we would like
to issue off a challenge.
The first player to hit a home run out of the new park,
will win this brand new catcher's set. Along
with a $100 gift card.
- Let's play ball. - Alright guys, the moment.
Game one. Now I know you guys are excited,
maybe even a little bit nervous, but that's okay.
That's a good thing. It means yo.
So now that the announcements are over with.
It's time to get down to playing some baseball!
Whoo hoo!
We got this guys, no sweat.
Let's go, let's go. Go get out.
Alright boy, it's your time to s
I need you to be the best player out there.
All right. Don't disappoint me.
Let's go.
Chase. This is the guy I was telling you about.
Best in the league.
Last year,
almost all of his games were sh...
Go Mick Jr., whoo!
What a beautiful day for baseb.
And we've got a real treat for y
today as the young phenom, Mick
prepare to throw the pitch on today's opener.
Come on Alex.
Let's get him son.
Strike!
Whoo! Strike him out son!
Mick Jr. doesn't disappoint
with his patented fastball
right down the middle.
Good swing son, good swing.
Strike three! Batter's out.
So animated.
Next up is Chase Stewart. He's a newcomer to the league.
One of the many players added as a part of the new merger.
Let's see what type of welcoming party Mick Jr.
Has in store for Mr. Stewart?
- Good job champ! - And it's a line drive,
Wow! What a statement as Mr. Stewart has a welcoming party
of his own, which involves a tri.
He hit Mick Jr. He hit Mick Jr.
That's what I'm talking about. The tribe is here!
The Tribe is here!
Yep..., yep..., yep...
And what a game it's been.
Really back and forth.
Which is unusual when Mick Jr. is pitching.
The tribe has rallied around Chase Stewart all day
and they're really gonna need him as he comes up
with the bases loaded and a full count with two outs.
And the outcome of the game may
depend upon this pitch.
Have we gotten this kid out at all today?
Nah. He got on base every time a.
Time blue.
Time!
And the Saints call a timeout to talk things over.
What's going on? You tired? You playing like crap.
That kid has gotten on base every single time at bat.
It's time to strike him out.
You want me to throw the fastb.
Goodness no. That could turn into a grand slam.
He's proven that he's good at ba.
But let's see how disciplined he
when the game is on the line.
Yep... Yep... Yep...
Coming outta the timeout it's safe to say the real
as he has to throw a strike in o
to prevent walking the run.
And from what I've witnessed today, I'm sure
that is not a scenario that Mick
would like to see play out.
Strike three! The batter's out.
He swings at the high pitch. That's ballgame folks.
What a gutsy call by coach Mick.
Great job today everyone.
You've definitely put the league
that we are a forced to be reckoned with, that's for sure.
Especially with our one two pu.
Speaking of which Chase, stand up for me son.
Now I know you're probably down about losing the game today,
but I'm, I'm kind of glad that you swung at that high ball.
Makes me know you're human. Ha h.
So overall, how you feel about.
It's a good turnout, exciting games. Glad my team won.
I know that's right. But the coach's son Chase,
whew, phenomenal player.
I think he could really help us
with the all star travel roster.
Nah, I'm not impressed.
He's good when there's no press...
He's got a long way to go.
Come in.
Junior, come here for a second.
How much money you make in today.
- I didn't make any money. - Well you should have.
Out there playing like crap.
Somebody on the other team had to be paying you something
or you just sucked all on your o.
You can't let some kid rattle yo
because he gets lucky off your first pitch.
You have to be the best player out there. Nobody else.
Remember that.
You got something to say?
Trying to live your dream throug your son,
it's not a good look.
You're a woman. Why don't you stay in your lane?
Excuse me. I'm your mother
and I don't like the way you're talking to me.
And as your mother, I don't like the way you
talked to my grandchild.
We won the game.
It's not about just winning th.
This youth park is the first step to a bigger picture.
I'm not trying to create unity for the city.
I'm trying to create wealth for.
At the end of this season, we're gonna take all the best
players and create a travel team and when that team wins,
it creates instant popularity for the city,
which means revenue for the city.
People from all over are gonna want to come here to watch
and play the game of baseball.
We will be idolized as hometown
who paved the way for a new era.
We'll never have to ask for anything in this town again.
But that does not work without
junior being the face of this le.
Okay.
I see you quiet now.
Oh hey coach. I'm Alice. I'm A.
Nice to meet you.
Your son Chase, he is something.
Your son Alex is not too bad eit.
How did you know I was a coach?
Oh, I keep up with what's going on in our
small town of sports.
And I know that you have quite a few district
championships under your belt.
I have a question. What happens
to your players whenever they le.
It seems like that winning culture should be
transferred over to the high sch.
Most of our good players, they I
and go to other high schools.
Oh, so they're being recruited?
No, the kids, they wish they cou
here and play together.
- Well why are they leaving? - It's the coaching.
The administration there is still under the
old school mentality.
They're looking at it from x's a
when they should be making play
to the player's abilities and ta.
If they change that, the players will stay.
That makes sense.
Hey hey, you seen Alex?
Oh he's running around with so.
Oh, okay. Hey real quick. While.
You know that payment that you made for Chase,
we're having some trouble proces.
Oh yeah. Um...
But no problem, no rush.
Just relaying the message while it's still fresh on my mind.
You know what I think? I think that you should apply
for the high school basketball p.
You have a proven track record.
You are local and it will be a pay increase.
There hiring for the head coachi.
Unofficially. It hasn't opened up.
I had my hopes up for that job once before. I don't know.
I can get you a sit down with the man himself.
You tell him exactly what you just told me.
It's no way you're not getting that job.
Good game buddy. I'm proud of.
You did your thing out there.
Hey, what was that about?
Oh, she was just congratulating.
And offering me a job.
What kind of job and how much does it pay?
She said she had some pool at the high school.
She said she can possibly give me an interview
as the head basketball coach.
Wait, you're gonna go coach at the high school?
I don't know son. I gotta think about it.
It's nothing to think about. We need the money.
That's God showing favor on us.
Well, who wants some ice cream?
- Me? - Come on.
Great balls of fire! There you.
This is our year!
Batter's out!
Hey, who is that girl?
Hey. Look at you out of the baseball spirits.
Looking nice.
- You like it? - Yes. I love it.
Hey, you didn't tell me that you already knew Mr. Kennedy.
- Mr. Kennedy? - Yeah.
He's the one hiring for the new position?
Yeah. Well normally he oversees,
but once I mentioned that you were coming, his attitude kind
of shifted, but it's probably a good thing.
Right? Come on, let's go.
Hmm. Coach Hollis come on in and have a seat.
I'll be with you in just a second.
Good luck.
Yeah.
Alright.
So how you been these days?
Nothing too much, spending time with family, coaching,
volunteering as a youth minister at the church.
You know, I find it hard to imagine a man like you and
that temper of yours you know, a member of pretty.
Yeah. So uh, I hear you might be interested in
the head coaching job.
Is that right?
Yes sir.
Okay, so
what qualifications you bringing.
Well, I have a winning record at the middle school.
I've be doing the same things
with the same kids, just at the next level.
Yeah
I take you didn't quite understand the question.
I'll rephrase it for you.
What experience do you have
coaching high school sports?
Actual high school experience? N.
Mm yeah, that's kind of what a t.
You have a good day, coach. We appreciate you dropping by.
Even in your old age
you still trying to stick it to.
Look, coach Hollis, I gotta believe you do know, right?
I mean, I don't think any
of us will ever get over the cha
that surrounded you your senior.
All them fights,
riots, protests.
It wasn't my fault.
And you gotta know, you could've put a stop to it.
All that nonsense, right?
With just a sliver of spine.
I mean, you're the star athlete.
Every one of them students would've listened to you,
but no, no, you just flat out refused to even listen to me!
We wanted things to be fair, e.
And you wanted things to stay th.
Well, just so you don't miss
what it is I'm saying here, as I
as I hold this position, you wil
the head basketball coach of thi.
And that right there, that's... that's about as fair
and equal as I can be. Right?
Eh, Coach Hollis.
You know, there is another posit
might consider you for.
Girls volleyball.
I don't have volleyball experien.
Well ain't that there the overwhelming theme.
Girls volleyball coach Hollis.
You be sure to get back with me
with your final decision.
Good to see you again.
Hello!
Hey coach. Everything okay?
Yeah. What you got?
There y'all are. There you go.
So what's going on?
Our friend coach Mick just put out a memo stating the new
rules and regulations for this league's tournament.
Before you could throw up to 85.
Now that numbers changed to 70. Can you believe that?
So that's lower than the 9 and 10-year-old standard.
Ah yeah. They're calling it
trying to protect the players.
But I'm smart enough to know that it's just another way
for them to gain an advantage for the playoffs.
So that means less pitches for our ace Alex.
But wouldn't that affect their t.
Not as much as ours. And I'll tell you why.
I traded a decent pitcher at the beginning of the season
for your nephew
that quit.
Jason's just been filling in.
Okay, well Jason would have have to fill in more, I guess.
Are you joking. You haven't se.
Show him.
Sprained his wrist four-wheeling.
Thinking he's in the X games or.
Told him about that.
He's okay,
but he can't pitch, that's for s.
So you want chase the fill in?
Well not just fill in... Start.
I figure, if he can get us three solid innings,
that should be enough for Alex t
and bring us on home.
I don't like it. Chase has never pitched before.
Well no one else on my roster ha
courage enough to go up on the m.
That position is not like every other position.
So it's Chase or nobody.
Where's Chase?
He's over at Coach Steve's house
practicing pitching.
Pitching?
Yeah the league came out with some new rules
to help protect the player's thr.
That should have already been in.
Sounds fishy to me.
Me too.
The only fish you two girls need
to be concerned about is the kind that we ordered.
Can y'all please go check on our plates?
Yes ma'am.
Thank you.
So how'd the interview go?
Mr. Kennedy is the head guy in c.
He's still alive. That man gave us hell in high school.
And it seems as if he's still working for the devil.
Took everything in me to keep my.
You kept your cool?
I surely did. I was quick to hear, slow to speak
and slow the wrath.
Just like the scripture says.
Slow the wrath?
Slow the wrath.
Lord, forgive me,
but the scripture does not apply for Mr. Kennedy.
So what are we gonna do now?
Actually he offered me another p.
If you say janitor, I know so met.
Girl's volleyball.
That man know you not interested in no girl's volleyball.
You don't even know the rules li.
If I take it, I gain high school coaching experience.
I get to coach Renee. And I get that pay raise we need.
Your passion is boys basketball.
I know, I know.
But this family comes first.
Sounds like we have something to celebrate
and they do sell your favorite d.
Ice cream!
All right, Chase keep your hea.
How did he do?
I think your son's more afraid
of getting hit with the ball more than anything?
When he's by himself pitching, he does great. Boom. Boom.
As soon as somebody gets up to t
it's like he's all outta sync.
My concern is if we start Chase
we might not even make it to the third inning.
So Alex will start.
Once he reaches his pitch count,
then hopefully maybe Chase can bring us on home after that.
All right, see you.
That's right folks. It is the.
And don't get me wrong,
the regular season doesn't go un.
But here, today it's win or go h.
And right now it's looking good for the Tribe
as they lead 7 to 2 going into the fifth.
We have a timeout for the Tribe for a pitching change.
No sweat Chase.
This is not like right field.
Yeah, but you got this.
What if the batter swings and ho.
Then duck.
I'm serious.
Okay, when you're batting, you're confident that.
Yeah.
Same with pitching. When pitch in
you have to be confident that
the batter won't hit your pitch.
You got this.
- Well, well, well. - Look what we have here.
What happened to Albert's boy?
Sprained his wrist riding a four.
You think he could pitch also?
I think they're desperate.
Good job son.
Good job out there.
Now we just gotta hope and pray for Chase.
Good job boy.
Hey son, you can't be scary all your life.
But when you plan on talking to him the right way?
I'm gonna talk to him.
I'm just letting it soak in.
What's there to soak in? Up by five lose by twenty.
That boy was humiliated out ther.
He did it to himself. He played.
Has it ever occurred to you
that maybe he's just not a pitch.
Half of those kids he walk was probably their first
time getting on base.
All he had to do was throw it across the plate.
I'm always having to tell you to tone it down
when it comes to Chase. He's not the same age as our girls.
He's a boy. Boys are built diffe.
Boy or girl.
He still has the mind of a child.
And out of all our children, Chase looks up to you the most.
He needs to hear something positive from his father.
Hey buddy, you okay?
I know what you're going through. Probably replaying
over and over.
All those people you walked, all those runs you allowed.
And it was a playoff game. So attendance was high.
Attendance was high?
Well wait, no... Attendance wasn't that high.
More like a moderate... high.
What I'm trying to say is, I've been in your shoes.
And when you play the game of sp
sometimes you lose... bad.
It's the nature of the beast.
Once you begin to accept that you come home from losses like
today with your head held high.
Beause your focus will be on what it takes to get better.
And plus, in the pros, there a
who just get paid to pitch.
They don't even bat.
Don't let today take away from what you are great at.
Chase.
Come here for a second.
Not the best way to end the seas.
Look, I wanna apologize for toda.
That was a lot to ask of you.
Sometimes I forget you all are j.
Do you even like the pitch?
- I hate it. - Especially after today, right?
Especially after today!
Alex said after the game, that h
and I would probably get selecte
for the All-Star travel team.
You know, we normally don't get involved in that.
It's just another way for some
organizations to make more money
I really wanna play. They said that they were gonna
state, staying in hotels with swimming pools
and going to amusement parks.
- Sounds expensive. - Come on dad, at least let me p.
I hear you.
But me and your mom got a lot going on right now.
With Raven going to college and me starting a new job,
We really don't have the time.
Come on dad. Please.
If you let me play, then I'll accept your apology.
Come on dad. Please, please, ple.
Alright, get your stuff and get outta here.
We're both the running late. Remember who you are.
You have the mind of Christ and greater is He
that is within you.
Than he who is within the world.
All right? Love you.
Love you. Bye.
Go get him.
Guys. It's time to hone in.
All right. You guys are doing good. Do not lose hope.
But we didn't make it this far just by playing around.
We need focus. Okay?
When you guys go in there, confidence is key.
So don't be afraid of the enemy. When we go out there
I wanna see you guys really put forth your best
effort, okay?
It's not time to slack down. We need to keep going.
Keep pushing through. All right? Get your best foot forward.
Roy! What time is practice schedule for today?
Excuse me?
What time was practice scheduled today?
Four o'clock.
And what time is it?
4:08pm.
Guys, when we say practice start
that means you get your butts here at 345.
I don't care how good you are or how many home runs you
think you can hit. This is the all-star league.
Everybody's on the same level he.
Unless we're talking about pitching huh Chase?
From now on, there's no more rel
on your God-given ability. It's work. And work starts.
Chase. Give me ten laps around t.
It's not the kid's fault.
Huh?
It's not the kid's fault.
You think I'm being too harsh?
Yeah. Harsh is making everybody run.
Y'all wanna do that?
No sir.
Alright.
You the new volleyball coach?
Yes I am.
Don't you coach football and bas.
I used to coach those sports at the middle school.
We are doomed.
So do you know anything about this sport
or did you just accept the job for a pay raise?
What's your name?
Frankie Thomas.
- Is your mom name Yvette? - Yeah.
I went to school with your mom.
Which explains why you have a bi.
Ah and last year's team captain.
Frankie, let me ask you some thin.
How many games did y'all win las.
- Three. - Three out of how many?
We went three and twenty three.
We sucked.
I'm gonna come clean with you la.
I did take the job for the pay.
And I'm actually learning the rules for the first time.
But I promise you this,
I'm fully invested in the success of this team.
And honestly, I like what I see.
You haven't even seen us play,
But I'm hearing you talk.
And communication is just as imp
as athleticism in sports.
All right so, let's see what kin
of condition you all are in.
Everybody on the line.
Now!
All right, here you go. Watch.
I got it. I got it, I got it.
There you go. Good catch. All right, we're.
Good hit son. Good hit, go get
glove and swap out with Chase.
Good job.
All right. The Great Chase is.
You made a pretty good name for yourself here locally.
But this is the all star league.
The game's gonna move a whole lo.
Let's see how well you fare now
when your faced with some real s.
Strike!
Come on, Chase. Hit the ball.
Uh uh. You have to stay in the batter's box
otherwise you're automatically o.
That's three misses Chase.
You just let your team down by striking out.
Keep your eyes on the ball!
Come on Chase. Hit the ball.
It's too fast.
What?
The balls are coming too fast, coach.
How about I let up then? Huh? Would you like that?
Hopefully our opponents will be just as generous.
Get back in the outfield. You're.
Hey y'all.
Hey baby.
How was practice? It felt like we were.
Dad had us running the whole tim.
- It's called conditioning. - Gotta get you girls in shape.
This is volleyball dad. We pretty much stay in.
This is true honey.
Oh, so y'all double teaming me n.
The ones with no coaching experience at all.
I gotta show you these shirts I got today.
So how did Chase do today?
I'm not sure. When I picked him
he was kind of down.
You asked him what was going on?
I tried. But he wasn't very talkative.
Can you talk to him?
I have a lot on my plate with this volleyball stuff.
It'll be okay. He just got to
adjust to the new level of play.
Come on Chase. Hit the ball.
That's three misses Chase.
You just let your team down by striking out.
I don't care how good you are or
home runs do you think you can h.
This is the all-star league.
Everybody's on the same level he.
Unless we're talking about pitching, huh Chase.
Proverbs 24:10.
If thou faints on a day of adversity.
Thou strength is small.
Hey y'all, what's the holdup?
Waiting on the umpire.
Apparently he's got a blowout on the interstate.
Imagine that.
That may take a minute, huh?
Well I'm waiting for him to call me back with an update.
Hey, how are things going with the new position?
It's not basketball.
But I'm still doing what I love.
That's right.
The volleyball team. See any potential out there?
Surprisingly, yeah. We had a bad season last year,
but a bunch of the girls are
returning including two captains.
Bad season...
And you're saying that's a good
thing that they're returning.
Am I missing something?
Oh!
Coach Steve.
Your tire's rolling down the int.
Hey, if you don't mind me aski
what was the reason you didn't take the basketball job?
Hmm. It wasn't offered.
What do you mean? I was there. You had an interview.
Like I said, it wasn't offered.
Well that's strange, because the guy they selected seems
like he's a step or two down fro.
- Who they select? - Johnson
Johnson from West Side?
Yeah. He hadn't had a winning.
Alright guys, listen up.
When the game starts, we bat fir.
Here's the lineup.
Whoa, they have you batting ei.
What? The point of the lineup is to
so they get more chances to bat. That's dumb.
Welp, just got off the phone with umpire. Guess what?
Can't make it. We may have to cancel the scrimmage guys.
Wait, what? Why can't we just call the game?
Well, none of us are certified.
Have you ever called a game before coach?
I used to umpire before.
I still have my certification.
Well then, let's play ball!
Been a slow start for both teams in tonight's scrimmage.
Hopefully Chase can shake things
as he takes the plate for the fi.
Alright Chase. I know you're n
to batting this late in the line
but you just have not impressed.
You have everybody else full, but not me.
I'm the head coach of this all-star team for a reason.
Hey boy! I wasn't finished talki.
Just like I tell all the guys,
I want you to take the first pit.
He's got seven throws to make.
Make him use every one of them.
First pitch is always a ball any.
And here's the pitch.
Strike.
Alright, now we're ready.
And the first pitch is a strike.
Straight down the middle.
Maybe Chase was looking at something different
as he chose not to swing the bat.
Ball.
All right... All right.
Chase quickly finds himself down in the count.
Strike three! Out!
That was a ball.
Anything close, swing the bat Ch.
But that wasn't close.
That was two strikes. Swing the.
Seems to be some type of excha
between Chase and the umpire.
But that was a ball.
Don't leave it to the ref.
- But that wasn't... - Two strikes, swing the.
Whoa.
Chase is not happy with that pla.
Hey son, what's gotten into you?
Don't make me embarrass you in front of these people.
Now get that bat and go to the d.
See, that's why I always said no to the all-star league.
They take the game of baseball and make it way too serious.
Let the focus be on the fun of the sport.
So you think that's what's going.
Before, he was the best player on the team.
Now he's batting eight.
His mind ain't ready for that.
But was that ball really even.
Girl, mind your business and go to your room.
Babe.
Was that ball a strike?
Strike or not Faye, life isn't fair.
Now that's a lesson.
And the sooner he learns it, the better.
You know, Alice told me that Johnson got the
head coaching job.
Johnson from West Side?
She actually thought I turned it
before she found out about it.
Strike or not. Sometimes life is.
First off, I want to thank you
for staying after services.
The Lord has placed it up on my
heart to go on the mission field.
As you already know, sister Clark has been traveling back
and forth to Mexico in efforts to spread the gospel along
with food and other supplies.
It has been in my spirit for quite some time.
And I believe now, it is time.
Good time for you pastor, but the wrong time for us.
There's a list in the back for anyone that would like
to sign up and attend.
What the list for in the back?
For anyone that would like to at.
Go to Mexico?
What we going to Mexico for?
To preach the gospel.
Well we could continue to spread the gospel here.
We ain't gotta go way to Mexico.
A mission trip to Mexico.
You can miss me with that one. Count me out!
They got the cartel down there. I done seen the shows.
Okay, how y'all going to Mexico?
We're gonna fly.
Huh?
- We're gonna fly. - Gonna fly.
Are you getting up to sign the list Sister Lilly?
Oh no sir. No sir.
I'm not gonna sign no list baby.
Because I ain't gone go to Mexico with y'all.
I'm gonna stay right here and gonna preach the word here.
Well we do start here. I've been ministering...
That's right. I know even though the
into all the what you call it, but God want me here!
We gonna go check on the list pastor.
- Brother Benny. - Come on. We gonna go look at.
Brother Hollis, I hear there are
thousands of children that are I.
I was hoping that you and sister Faye would sign up.
We surely could use the puppet m
as a way to reach the children.
So you all think about it.
We will think about it Pastor.
Hey guys, we need y'all to com
to the dining room for a second.
So in a couple of weeks, your mo
and I will be traveling on a mis.
Pastor spoke with us today
and he feels that being a part
of this trip would be a blessing
to the work God has called us to.
Where y'all going?
Mexico.
Mexico. Is it even safe there?
Yes, it's safe there. Sister Clark has been a few times.
Don't they speak a different language in Mexico?
I'm sure they'll have translator.
How long will you be gone?
Two weeks.
So yes, we need to establish some ground rules.
We believe Raven is old enough to hold down the fort
but we'll have family checking in on y'all.
So no company while we're gone.
What about the baseball tourna.
Y'all be back in time for that,
Unfortunate Chase, we would still be out of town
during the first tournament.
I'm sorry bud. So Raven, you wou
to take your brother to the tour.
How did I get stuck with babysitting duties?
Because you're the oldest
and you're the only one that has
I got a car? I got a car!
Y'all should have led with that.
Hey man, it's gonna be okay. Just play your game.
You gonna be out of this funk before you know it.
Welcome everybody to this year's first annual All-Star
baseball tournament hosted by Co
and his All-Star travel team.
Teams from all over have travele
to participate in this baseball tournament.
- Alright guys, this is it. - Our first tournament play.
Let's show these people what we.
We'll continue to go with the sa.
Everybody in. Win on three.
One, two, three... Win!
Get out there.
That's another strikeout for M.
What an exciting game it's been folks, back and forth.
I'm not trying to take that fi
I'm trying to hit the ball.
You know what to do. Let's go.
Here comes the pitch.
Strike!
What did I say about swinging at that first pitch, huh?
Error made by Chase, allowing two runs to score.
Pull him.
Huh?
You heard what I said! Pull him!
He can't hit, he can't make a simple throw home.
Get him off the field.
And put it in. Who?
Get Chase out the game!
Been a timeout, called on the.
Have a seat, son.
Hola. Bueno.
Pass it to me.
Give me five.
Six.
Gotcha. I gotcha. Yay.
I won't let you go.
And let's toast to a wonderful mission trip.
Hey look. That is real corny. That.
You tired?
No, I'm actually excited, bro the.
That's what you get when you're serving the Lord.
Take us to a higher level. Doesn't it feel different?
Who would've thought helping the
people doing this good work?
This just hits different, doesn'
I can't tell if he's serious o.
I can't either. To be honest wit
I'm actually kind of nervous.
The pastor telling me to talk to people and all that.
I thought we were just gonna hand out stuff.
Welcome to the mission field brother. Let the Lord use you.
I be in the sound booth. That's my ministry.
We can't thank you enough for taking this trip,
taking the time to be with us.
I know you have your own battles back at home,
but we really do appreciate it.
Oh, we supposed to bow.
That's the custom in Mexico. Bow.
But you know what?
She has one thing, right?
We have our own battles back at.
Chase had his first game today. I don't know how he did.
He'll be all right, Faye.
I don't know.
I don't have a good feeling abou.
What you feeling?
Like something's wrong.
What was that? Get your head in the game.
Look, let's just put Chase back in the game.
I don't think Chase knows that there is a game.
Time.
Hey, what's wrong with Chase?
I was about to ask you the same.
Am I allowed to go talk to him?
You know what? I'll be right back. Let me go check.
Alex come here.
Seems to be a pitching change by Coach Mick.
And still no signs of Chase after making an error
a few innings back.
Hey there coach.
This better be important.
I'm trying to win this game here.
Just trying to see what's going on with Chase there.
You see what's going on with him? He's getting benched.
That kid is not as good as everybody thinks he is.
Well, he could just be in a slump. You ever think of that?
And he's a lot better than that Rose's kid, I tell you.
Yeah, but Rose's kid is a team p.
Look at him, his head down.
He's not engaged in what is happ.
That's a sign of selfishness and arrogance.
Two things I can't stand.
I'm the head coach of this team for a reason
and since the time I pulled him, we've been coming back.
So why don't you let me do my jo.
Well you only been in scoring
because they put in their relief.
Everybody knows that. And Chase could've ate his lunch.
Steve, the conversation needs to be about your son,
wondering if he's too soft to close out this game.
This conversation about Chase is over. Step off my field.
Don't you say a word to my playe.
Hey!
Hey son, I'm talking to you.
Sitting there pouting is not gon
get you back in this game.
If we score a run, make a play, strike a batter out.
I expect you to be excited about.
Unless you don't wanna be here.
Huh, I didn't make you out to be a crybaby.
Those tears don't move me.
Chase, let's go.
And who are you?
I'm his ride.
Chase leaves when the game is ov.
It is over the second you
decided to pull him out the game.
Get yourself Chase. We're leavin.
Chase leaves now,
he may not be able to come back.
- What's your problem, huh? - You got something against us?
Because I'm looking at your team
and my brother's running circles around them.
Yet he's the one sitting on the
bench and he's the best hitter.
Your brother is arrogant and sel.
This is a team sport and he needs to be taught that.
That's a lie. There's not a selfish bone in.
We were raised right?
Obviously respect for authority
was a chapter that was skipped.
I'm serious about what I said.
If he leaves, he's done for good.
Ladies take five.
Corner up ladies.
Hey Coach.
I know why you here.
And the answers no.
Well just hear me out.
Kind of like I did last year?
We've been down this road before.
Your son is so talented and what happened last summer?
What happened last summer was a grown man,
embarrassing my son to the point
where he don't even wanna watch baseball anymore.
He was bullied and I wasn't even.
Now, you can't blame yourself for what happened.
You are on a missions trip for G.
How admirable was that of you?
Not enough to save my son.
Speaking of which, how's my boy doing? How's Chase?
He's found a new love. Basketball.
Basketball?
Now... Do you think
that's really gonna be favorable for Chase?
We both know that to play at that next level,
there is a height requirement.
Chase will be fine.
He's talented. And plus, like I
baseball is a sore subject in our family right now.
I understand. But if you let Chase walk away from the game
baseball will forever be a sore.
Re-living that moment.
Anytime the words even mentioned.
Years from now,
watching his children's children play, the memory
of quitting and the memory of hu
will always hang over that little boy's head.
You are doing the most, all this
to get my son on your baseball t.
Well, Chase was on my ball team,
which means he's kind of like fa
I'll tell you what, I'm gonna sign Chase up for the team
and it's up to you if you wanna show up or not.
Oh, and congratulations on turning this program around.
The girls are really looking good, I didn't know
coaching girls' volleyball was your passion.
You learn something new every day, don't you?
I hope to see you there coach.
You got some game son, but you'll never stop your daddy.
Just wait until I get taller and you get older.
So tell me son, what's your favorite sport?
Basketball.
What about it that you like?
It's fun. I like shooting threes... dunking.
I really like dunking.
Oh well you know the ball actually have to go in
for the dunk to count, right?
It does go in. Especially when I use both of my hands.
What about baseball? The next Aaron Judge?
Nah, basketball's way more fun.
Basketball may be more exciting.
But we both know that baseball is your best sport.
It's not the same anymore.
What do you mean?
I can't explain it?
I'm just not good at it anymore.
Chase, you can do all things
through Christ that strengthens.
Your confidence was stolen
and all we have to do is take it.
You remember I used to pitch to you during the summers.
And I would have you stand and hold your ground in the
and then I would throw you a curve ball just
to see if you would get rattled.
That's because your curve balls don't curve.
And in life, Sometimes we're thrown.
With intentions to get us out of the way.
Don't let them keep you from staying in the box.
Let's show them that they're mes
with the wrong future professional baseball player.
Now go grab your stuff.
It's time to take back what's been stolen from you.
Wow, that was quite the pep talk. What's gotten into you?
Coach Steve came by the gym today. Got me thinking.
And what else are you thinking?
You still want that coaching job.
I do, but my curve balls hit a I
different than Chase's.
We wrestle not against flesh and.
But against spiritual wickedness in high places.
The situation may be different,
but the powers that be are the s.
Let's pray.
Dear heavenly Father,
we come to you today praying for our son, that the spirit
of fear be released from him.
That he will play with boldness and confidence
and be ten times better than bef.
Yes. And I pray for my husband.
That he will get the coaching job that he is called
and meant to have.
If coaching in this city is not the place for him,
then show him where he needs to.
- In Jesus name. - In Jesus name. Amen.
I felt that one.
Now you know what happens next.
Faith without works is dead.
It's time to get to work.
Destined to be great and pressing to be greater.
Be a blessing to the haters. I'm working to be the greatest.
Greatest. Yeah. I'm working to be the greatest. Greatest.
Yeah. I'm working to be the grea.
Make it from the start, to take.
You need heart. Humbleness, obed
and be willing to take some dart.
Don't be out here faking your part. Living to the realest.
You get hurt in life, just pray and ask God to heal it.
Can't tell everything to the pub.
Some you gotta conceal it.
Everybody don't like your dream, some trying to kill it.
Others trying to build it.
So don't you dare lose hope. Ask God forgiveness
and fight your way up off the ropes. Say it loud, real proud
with God ain't no stopping me.
I'm go succeed and comply with the prophecy.
Nowhere to go but the top you se.
Headed for altitudes high, where them choppers be.
Not a sixth seed
the doc ain't in my pocket docki.
The word of God works if you read and apply properly.
Yes, I'm God's property. He will work through me powerfully.
But I gotta be confident even when looking awkwardly.
Destined to be great and pressing to be greater.
Be a blessing to the haters. I'm working to be the greatest.
Greatest. Yeah. I'm working
to be the greatest. Greatest. Ye
I'm working to be the greatest.

But the slogan is still the same.
Get out there and do your very best. Have fun doing it.
Most importantly. Come on, bring.
Tribe me Tribe on three.
One, two, three Tribe!
Hey, it's Chase.
My dad told me you're focusing on basketball.
The truth is, baseball's my true
and I'm not gonna let anybody strip that away from me.
We have a late change to the starting lineup
as Chase Stewart enters the game
as the lead off batter in today'
Last season, Chase started off s
but ran into a bit of a struggle at the plate later on.
I'm curious to see which version
of Mr. Stewart comes here to pla.
Wow! And it's a shot straight down the third base line. Wow!
- Strike three! Batter's out! - That's a strikeout for Alex.
That's my boy.
Another strike out for Mick Jr.
Steve is given the umpire an earful on that last play call.
Another big hit by the Tribe.
Whoo! Let's go!
Batter's out!
Back and forth
this game has been.
Somebody pinch me because this is dèjá vu from a year ago.
Season opener.
Chase at bat. Three two count with the bases loaded
and two outs. Last year ended
with Chase striking out at the p.
There's been a time out called on the field.
Alright, junior it's time to strike him out.
But obviously that's not going t.
We can't walk him. It'll bring in the home winning run.
Want to see what we can do with
rise ball again like last year?
- No, he's too smart for that. - I can strike him out dad.
Oh really? Like the last five times when he's been rocking
the ball down our throats.
Shut up. I'm trying to think.
Junior, I want you to hit him.
Huh?
I want you to hit that kid with
and make it look like an acciden.
You want him to purposely hit Ch.
That way they win by technical it.
Chase doesn't beat us. We beat o.
You want him to purposely hit a 12-year-old child?
I want you to shut your mouth because you sound like.
Look, if you gonna be sitting here hurting 12-year-old kids
I can't be a part of that.
Oh really? Remind me again how you finally got
that loan for your startup bus in.
We create value to ourselves
by representing a winning cultur.
Sometimes in order to see that v
through little things like this have to happen.
Junior, this is baseball. It's a part of the game.
I want you to hit that kid. Say
slipped and we all go home.
The play call has been made.
It all boils down to this last p.
Curious to see what Saints decide to do here.
As Chase has shown great maturity compared to last year.
Junior.
This is baseball. It's a part of.
I want you to hit that kid.
Say it slipped and we all go hom.
Oh boy. Chase appears to be in a lot of pain
after taking a shot from a wild.
You okay?
This time I'm not kidding. That.
- Come on. Can you walk? - Yeah.
Come on. Get up.
