Ready?

Get under it. Good job. Good job.

Alright, last one. And then
we'll get some fielding in.

All right, here we go.

Chase. Always step
back first. See the ball,

then make a play on it. Come on.

Catch the ball on the hop.

This ain't nothing new. Come on.

Can't be afraid of the ball.
Make the ball afraid of you.

Alright girls.

Good job. Good job.

All right girls, take a
short break then come help

field these balls for Chase.

Alright son, we're gonna do
a few batting drills with you.

Y'all know I could have
pitched in the pros, right?

Whatever you say, dad.

No curve balls dad.

No curve balls. I don't know

of any leagues that you can requ

what's gonna be thrown at you?

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?

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.

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.

The new season fellas.

Last year was last year
and this year is now.

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.

Coach Mick.

I just heard some very disturbing news.

You know you are lucky that

that kid was not seriously injur.

- Mayor. I didn't.
- Your coaching days are over.

Come on.

Come on and chat with me in my office.

Let's go now!

Ball game!

Okay once again, it will
take a few days to get back

with you, but I do wish
you the best of luck.

- Thank you for coming.
- Thank you.

You're welcome.

Have a good one. Thank you.

Okay, next we have an Ashley Bra

then Hollis Stewart. You are nex.

Right this way.

How are you today?

Has anyone seen the secretary?

You just missed her?

They should be back soon.

Do me a favor, tell them
principal Thomas from Northside

drop this off and it needs
to be put in the system.

Northside?

Y'all hiring?

You look familiar.

Your coach Hollis, the
volleyball coach from.

Elms High. Your team won state I.

Yes sir.

What are you doing here?

Believe it or not, I'm actually
interviewing for a new position.

What about the volleyball position?

I'm still there.

It has its pros and cons,
but it's not my passion.

What is your passion?

Boys basketball.

Huh. And what's your certificati.

Math, science, physical educatio.

Follow me.

Our volleyball coach is retiring
Hence these applications.

Now I know that volleyball
isn't new thing,

but considering the fact that
our boys' basketball program

is a laughing matter.

I mean we have stats on the amou

of points we average losing by.

If you're willing to accept
the volleyball position,

then the boys' basketball
coaching job is yours.

You get percentages for
coaching both sports

and I'll let you choose
what certification to teach.

You can make that call?

I'm the principal.

Yes, I can make that call.

We would be honored to have
Coach Hollis at Northside.

So... how the interview go?

We believe God has given us

a purpose to minister to the chi.

these nice boys and girls.

What about the ones that aren't.

He ain't never left my side.

Brought me through all
of the pain. Jesus did it.

Humbled me in my pride
kept me on top of my game.

He was with it. I was like,
oh my God, this is too much

to contain but he did it.

He was like, no, my child,
you gotta trust in the name.

Spoke with us today. And he feel

it'll be a blessing to be.

I just need a dugout with a co.

What's the point of being a dugo
