1
00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:04,020
(tense music)

2
00:00:09,110 --> 00:00:12,200
(indistinct chatter)

3
00:00:40,090 --> 00:00:40,930
- Ball four.

4
00:00:40,930 --> 00:00:44,260
(cheering and applause)

5
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,710
(cheering and applause)

6
00:01:00,710 --> 00:01:02,090
- [Umpire] Out!

7
00:01:02,090 --> 00:01:02,930
- Safe!

8
00:01:02,930 --> 00:01:05,280
- Nice play, Jimmy, nice play!

9
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:06,140
Woo!

10
00:01:06,140 --> 00:01:07,760
Alright, one more out.

11
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:09,350
One more, let's go!

12
00:01:12,390 --> 00:01:14,890
(tense music)

13
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:16,680
- Oh boy.

14
00:01:20,110 --> 00:01:20,950
- Blue.

15
00:01:23,690 --> 00:01:26,110
Outfield, keep it in front of you.

16
00:01:26,110 --> 00:01:31,110
Alright, let's go.

17
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,770
(cheering and applause)

18
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:59,090
(cheering and applause)

19
00:02:04,630 --> 00:02:07,130
(crowd gasps)

20
00:02:14,470 --> 00:02:16,350
(cheering and applause)

21
00:02:16,350 --> 00:02:18,050
(players celebrate)

22
00:02:18,050 --> 00:02:21,380
(cheering and applause)

23
00:02:25,230 --> 00:02:27,560
- No, he's okay, he's okay.

24
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,130
(cheering and applause)

25
00:02:31,130 --> 00:02:34,470
(cheering and applause)

26
00:02:40,530 --> 00:02:43,530
(players celebrate)

27
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,120
- You okay?

28
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,970
- I should've caught it.

29
00:02:53,970 --> 00:02:55,540
- You gave it everything you could.

30
00:02:55,540 --> 00:02:56,660
(soft music)

31
00:02:56,660 --> 00:02:57,860
- I should've caught it.

32
00:03:01,510 --> 00:03:03,050
- We're really gonna
miss you next year, Kyle.

33
00:03:04,540 --> 00:03:06,820
I wish every one of my kids
played with your heart.

34
00:03:08,410 --> 00:03:10,850
Just remember me when you
get to the majors, alright?

35
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,250
- [Announcer] Congratulations
to the 10-year-old All-Stars

36
00:03:15,250 --> 00:03:18,430
and state champions from
Brookville, Massachusetts.

37
00:03:18,430 --> 00:03:22,590
Final score: Brookville
eight, Princeton seven.

38
00:03:22,590 --> 00:03:25,010
Good luck at regionals, boys.

39
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,380
(soft music)

40
00:03:51,370 --> 00:03:52,370
- I think that's it.

41
00:03:56,150 --> 00:03:58,160
So what do you think?

42
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,070
- I mean, the yard's a lot
smaller than our other house.

43
00:04:00,070 --> 00:04:01,720
- Ah, it's not that much smaller.

44
00:04:02,700 --> 00:04:04,250
You wanna test it out?

45
00:04:04,250 --> 00:04:05,430
- Right now?

46
00:04:05,430 --> 00:04:06,700
- Yeah.

47
00:04:06,700 --> 00:04:07,540
Huh?

48
00:04:12,630 --> 00:04:13,500
So listen, Kyle,

49
00:04:13,500 --> 00:04:15,560
I know moving's not the
easiest thing for you,

50
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,000
but I think we're really
gonna like it here.

51
00:04:25,290 --> 00:04:26,130
But guess what,

52
00:04:26,130 --> 00:04:28,320
I was talking to some
of the dads I work with,

53
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:32,050
they said our 10s and 11s won
states two years in a row.

54
00:04:32,050 --> 00:04:36,030
And our 12s went to the World Series.

55
00:04:36,030 --> 00:04:36,860
- [Kyle] Really?

56
00:04:36,860 --> 00:04:37,690
- Yeah.

57
00:04:37,690 --> 00:04:39,270
- Do you think I could
make the all-star team?

58
00:04:41,620 --> 00:04:43,700
- Yeah, I think you probably have

59
00:04:43,700 --> 00:04:45,450
just as good a shot as anybody.

60
00:04:49,690 --> 00:04:52,220
Alright, let's see that heater.

61
00:04:53,290 --> 00:04:54,130
- Dad.

62
00:04:54,130 --> 00:04:56,820
- Come on, just one,
keep up your accuracy.

63
00:05:02,430 --> 00:05:04,850
(soft music)

64
00:05:09,270 --> 00:05:10,100
Good pitch.

65
00:05:21,420 --> 00:05:22,580
Hey, babe.

66
00:05:22,580 --> 00:05:23,410
- Hey.

67
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:26,520
How you doing with everything?

68
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:27,350
- Alright.

69
00:05:30,070 --> 00:05:31,020
One step at a time.

70
00:05:32,210 --> 00:05:34,130
- That's all we can do.

71
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,970
- Hey, buddy, how's the unpacking going?

72
00:05:44,970 --> 00:05:45,800
- Good.

73
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,770
- Good, you wanna take a break,

74
00:05:47,770 --> 00:05:49,340
go play catch with your brother?

75
00:05:49,340 --> 00:05:50,210
- Not really.

76
00:05:50,210 --> 00:05:53,420
- Ah, come on, he'd love to
make the travel team here.

77
00:05:53,420 --> 00:05:55,690
Besides, you should work
out some of that rust too,

78
00:05:55,690 --> 00:05:58,220
you can't just waltz onto varsity here.

79
00:05:58,220 --> 00:05:59,090
- Coach already called though

80
00:05:59,090 --> 00:06:01,200
and said he's excited
for me to be on the team.

81
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,360
- Yeah, but you have to prove
to him that you can play.

82
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:04,570
- He was at regionals

83
00:06:04,570 --> 00:06:06,580
when I threw that no-hitter
against New Jersey.

84
00:06:06,580 --> 00:06:09,220
- [Ted] Xavier, there's more
to the game than pitching.

85
00:06:09,220 --> 00:06:11,450
- I went three for four with two homers.

86
00:06:11,450 --> 00:06:14,490
Anyways, I think it's time I
start focusing more on girls

87
00:06:14,490 --> 00:06:17,150
and a little bit less on baseball.

88
00:06:17,150 --> 00:06:18,930
- Yeah, why don't you sit down and relax

89
00:06:18,930 --> 00:06:20,930
until that feeling goes away

90
00:06:20,930 --> 00:06:22,760
and then go practice with Kyle.

91
00:06:24,260 --> 00:06:25,090
- Hey, Dad,

92
00:06:25,970 --> 00:06:28,230
you know, now that we're
in this new town and all,

93
00:06:28,230 --> 00:06:30,440
I'm really trying to
move away from Xavier.

94
00:06:31,850 --> 00:06:35,330
So if you could just, like, call me X.

95
00:06:35,330 --> 00:06:36,320
- [Ted] X?

96
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:37,880
- Yeah,

97
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,590
X.

98
00:06:40,590 --> 00:06:41,750
Dad, Dad, seriously.

99
00:06:41,750 --> 00:06:42,940
Dad, come on.

100
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:47,720
(upbeat music)

101
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,140
(bell rings)

102
00:07:01,750 --> 00:07:03,570
- Hey, Mr. Howard.

103
00:07:03,570 --> 00:07:04,420
- How's it going?

104
00:07:06,310 --> 00:07:07,850
- Here you go.

105
00:07:07,850 --> 00:07:08,720
- Thank you.

106
00:07:10,050 --> 00:07:11,530
- Yeah, right there.

107
00:07:11,530 --> 00:07:14,440
Alright, class, settle down, settle down.

108
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,530
Welcome back.

109
00:07:17,530 --> 00:07:19,920
Hope everyone had a nice spring break.

110
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,960
Did anyone do anything interesting?

111
00:07:22,950 --> 00:07:25,050
- I went to the Kennedy Space Center.

112
00:07:25,050 --> 00:07:25,970
- That's cool, Billy,

113
00:07:25,970 --> 00:07:27,570
did you get a good look Uranus?

114
00:07:27,570 --> 00:07:31,330
- Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,
very funny, Glenn, grow up.

115
00:07:32,310 --> 00:07:33,520
Alright, class, listen,

116
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,910
we have a new student in our homeroom,

117
00:07:35,910 --> 00:07:39,470
so please welcome, boom, Xavier Cooke.

118
00:07:40,990 --> 00:07:42,140
Come on, come on up.

119
00:07:44,490 --> 00:07:45,340
Come on, come on.

120
00:07:46,380 --> 00:07:48,820
So do you pronounce it
Zay-vier or X-avier?

121
00:07:49,930 --> 00:07:53,910
- Uh, it's Zay-vier, but,
uh, everyone just calls me X,

122
00:07:53,910 --> 00:07:54,740
so that's what I go by.

123
00:07:54,740 --> 00:07:55,570
- [Mr. Howard] X?

124
00:07:55,570 --> 00:07:56,400
- [Xavier] Yeah.

125
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,880
- Alright, so how did you
spend your spring break?

126
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,370
- A lot of unpacking

127
00:08:00,370 --> 00:08:03,280
and played a little
baseball with the guys.

128
00:08:04,350 --> 00:08:05,590
- Oh, so you're the new pitcher

129
00:08:05,590 --> 00:08:07,220
Coach Barrett's been crowing about?

130
00:08:07,220 --> 00:08:08,050
- Yeah, yeah, that's me.

131
00:08:08,050 --> 00:08:09,780
- Okay, well, hey, welcome to our school.

132
00:08:09,780 --> 00:08:10,610
- Thank you.

133
00:08:10,610 --> 00:08:11,440
- Yeah.

134
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,610
Listen, if you have any questions
about your class schedule,

135
00:08:14,610 --> 00:08:15,720
come talk to me.

136
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:16,550
Okay?

137
00:08:16,550 --> 00:08:18,810
Glenn, see me after class.

138
00:08:18,810 --> 00:08:21,010
No, matter of fact, go
stand in the corner.

139
00:08:21,010 --> 00:08:22,430
Always telling jokes.

140
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,750
I'm not playing, boy,
go stand in the corner.

141
00:08:25,750 --> 00:08:28,760
(upbeat music)

142
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,180
(bell rings)

143
00:08:32,570 --> 00:08:34,120
- Hey, do you know where, uh...

144
00:08:35,990 --> 00:08:36,820
- X?

145
00:08:38,560 --> 00:08:40,180
X?

146
00:08:40,180 --> 00:08:41,420
- Hi.
- Hi,

147
00:08:41,420 --> 00:08:43,690
do you know where you're going?

148
00:08:43,690 --> 00:08:44,960
- Not really.

149
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,710
- Here, let me see.

150
00:08:46,710 --> 00:08:50,790
Oh, room 139 is actually
in the annex building,

151
00:08:50,790 --> 00:08:52,710
that's about two blocks away.

152
00:08:52,710 --> 00:08:53,680
- What?

153
00:08:53,680 --> 00:08:55,100
- (chuckles) I'm only kidding.

154
00:08:55,100 --> 00:08:56,690
Just down the hall.

155
00:08:56,690 --> 00:08:58,700
Miss Bartone is great too.

156
00:08:58,700 --> 00:09:00,190
You got lucky.

157
00:09:00,190 --> 00:09:01,570
- Thank you...

158
00:09:01,570 --> 00:09:02,840
- Brooke.

159
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,770
- Brooke, thank you, Brooke.

160
00:09:04,770 --> 00:09:06,270
You're like my guardian angel.

161
00:09:09,210 --> 00:09:11,760
- Try to snap your wrists
through a little earlier.

162
00:09:13,100 --> 00:09:14,340
That's it.

163
00:09:14,340 --> 00:09:16,640
- Dad, can I get a new bat this year?

164
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,170
- That one's still got some pop in it.

165
00:09:18,170 --> 00:09:20,720
- It's old, Xavier used it for two years.

166
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,130
- Come on, back to hitting.

167
00:09:24,460 --> 00:09:25,290
Nice.

168
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,000
Hey, you must be Rick?

169
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:31,830
- Yeah.

170
00:09:31,830 --> 00:09:34,320
- I sent you an email about my son Kyle.

171
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:35,770
- Oh, yeah, Tim, right?

172
00:09:35,770 --> 00:09:39,190
- Uh, I wish, Ted, Ted Cooke.

173
00:09:39,190 --> 00:09:40,490
- Kyle, how you doing, buddy?

174
00:09:40,490 --> 00:09:41,320
- Good.

175
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,260
- I'm Coach Rick, this is Max.

176
00:09:43,260 --> 00:09:44,390
You ready to play some ball?

177
00:09:44,390 --> 00:09:45,220
- Yeah.
- Yeah?

178
00:09:45,220 --> 00:09:46,050
- Always, Coach.

179
00:09:46,050 --> 00:09:47,620
- Why don't you, uh, head out to short?

180
00:09:47,620 --> 00:09:48,920
Max, you wanna play first?

181
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:00,480
Has he played much ball?

182
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,950
- Oh, yeah, he's been
playing since he was four.

183
00:10:07,050 --> 00:10:09,050
- What, uh, what positions?

184
00:10:09,050 --> 00:10:10,470
- Uh, just about anywhere.

185
00:10:10,470 --> 00:10:11,980
He played center and short

186
00:10:11,980 --> 00:10:14,700
on the city all-star team last year.

187
00:10:14,700 --> 00:10:15,530
- Yeah?

188
00:10:17,570 --> 00:10:18,980
How'd you guys do?

189
00:10:18,980 --> 00:10:22,360
- Uh, runner-up in states, Massachusetts.

190
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:23,610
- Right.

191
00:10:23,610 --> 00:10:27,510
We beat that Mass team
in regionals last year.

192
00:10:27,510 --> 00:10:29,460
Kyle, why don't you head out to center?

193
00:10:30,730 --> 00:10:35,490
It's a big commitment,
you know, all-star teams.

194
00:10:35,490 --> 00:10:40,430
Travel, hotel rooms, maybe
flights, it gets expensive.

195
00:10:40,430 --> 00:10:41,260
- Hmm.

196
00:10:44,380 --> 00:10:45,210
- Got it.

197
00:10:47,700 --> 00:10:49,410
- Hey, buddy, put some zip on it.

198
00:10:58,400 --> 00:10:59,270
- Wow!

199
00:11:00,860 --> 00:11:02,040
He's got a cannon.

200
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,710
- Yeah.
- Does he pitch?

201
00:11:03,710 --> 00:11:06,500
- Nah, he doesn't really like to pitch.

202
00:11:07,340 --> 00:11:08,170
- Really?

203
00:11:11,110 --> 00:11:12,460
- [Kyle] That's a cool shirt.

204
00:11:12,460 --> 00:11:14,710
- Thanks, it's the
all-stars practice jersey.

205
00:11:15,770 --> 00:11:17,020
We're the Bats, get it?

206
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,180
- How many kids tried out?

207
00:11:21,180 --> 00:11:24,090
- Like 30, but only 12 of us made it.

208
00:11:24,090 --> 00:11:26,080
Eight kids are really good,

209
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,040
and then four spots go
to the coaches' kids.

210
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,110
(sighs) You look like you're
good enough to make it

211
00:11:31,110 --> 00:11:32,440
if a spot opens up.

212
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:33,500
- Oh, you're up.

213
00:11:33,500 --> 00:11:34,330
- Oh, thanks.

214
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,820
- Hey, hon, how was today?

215
00:11:41,820 --> 00:11:43,620
- It was alright.

216
00:11:44,660 --> 00:11:46,350
Kinda weird to be selling again.

217
00:11:47,780 --> 00:11:51,170
I mean, I'm 40 and I'm
back doing the same job

218
00:11:51,170 --> 00:11:53,090
as when I got outta college.

219
00:11:53,090 --> 00:11:56,360
- Except by my calculations,
you're actually 42.

220
00:11:58,020 --> 00:12:00,190
Well, Kyle had a great time at practice,

221
00:12:00,190 --> 00:12:01,420
he really likes the new team.

222
00:12:01,420 --> 00:12:02,370
- Good.

223
00:12:02,370 --> 00:12:04,140
Uh, what's up with Xavier?

224
00:12:04,140 --> 00:12:06,700
- Oh, you mean X?

225
00:12:06,700 --> 00:12:09,420
I am not allowed to
call him Xavier anymore,

226
00:12:09,420 --> 00:12:12,460
and I heard him on the phone with a girl.

227
00:12:12,460 --> 00:12:14,870
- Dad, check it out.

228
00:12:14,870 --> 00:12:17,070
- [Ted] Hey, nice uni, bud.

229
00:12:17,070 --> 00:12:19,260
- And the best part...

230
00:12:19,260 --> 00:12:20,850
- Oh, you got your number?

231
00:12:20,850 --> 00:12:22,000
Nice.

232
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:22,830
- Yeah,

233
00:12:22,830 --> 00:12:24,190
but AJ said another kid
on the all-star team

234
00:12:24,190 --> 00:12:25,390
already has seven,

235
00:12:25,390 --> 00:12:27,100
so I have to think of a new one for that.

236
00:12:27,100 --> 00:12:30,620
- Well, let's, uh, let's
make the team first,

237
00:12:30,620 --> 00:12:32,320
then we can worry about a number.

238
00:12:33,170 --> 00:12:34,780
- Oh, and our first game is against

239
00:12:34,780 --> 00:12:36,170
the coach of the all-star team.

240
00:12:36,170 --> 00:12:37,000
- Well, that's good,

241
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,070
let's get practicing, show
him what you got, huh?

242
00:12:40,070 --> 00:12:40,900
Hmm?

243
00:12:47,030 --> 00:12:50,360
(cheering and applause)

244
00:12:55,390 --> 00:12:56,220
- Out!

245
00:12:56,220 --> 00:12:57,050
- Jason!

246
00:12:58,190 --> 00:13:00,790
You gotta make that catch!

247
00:13:00,790 --> 00:13:02,740
Take the piano off your back and hustle

248
00:13:02,740 --> 00:13:04,790
or you won't play another game this year!

249
00:13:07,540 --> 00:13:09,340
- Hey, good try, buddy, good effort.

250
00:13:19,370 --> 00:13:20,650
- How's the team?

251
00:13:20,650 --> 00:13:21,770
- Pretty good,

252
00:13:21,770 --> 00:13:24,750
and we picked up a new
kid that can really play.

253
00:13:24,750 --> 00:13:27,150
- Is he better than my
speed demon in right?

254
00:13:27,150 --> 00:13:29,750
(Rick scoffs)

255
00:13:29,750 --> 00:13:30,810
Who?

256
00:13:30,810 --> 00:13:31,640
- Short.

257
00:13:33,700 --> 00:13:35,080
- Well, I only got one spot left,

258
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,240
and I think I'm gonna
give it to Murray's kid.

259
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:38,650
- Really?

260
00:13:38,650 --> 00:13:39,600
- He ain't too bad.

261
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,500
His old man hired us to put
an addition on his house.

262
00:13:44,970 --> 00:13:45,800
- Man, I don't know,

263
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:47,400
we might wanna give this new kid a shot.

264
00:13:51,020 --> 00:13:53,440
- Come on, Mase, let's
put one in play now!

265
00:13:57,490 --> 00:14:01,230
(cheering and applause)

266
00:14:01,230 --> 00:14:02,140
Nice hit, buddy!

267
00:14:04,090 --> 00:14:06,260
- [Player] That was a hit?

268
00:14:14,650 --> 00:14:15,480
(cheering and applause)
- Dig in, dig in deep,

269
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:16,320
come on now!

270
00:14:17,460 --> 00:14:19,120
Nice running, Mase!

271
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,060
Okay, Traver, let's let it rip!

272
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:23,250
- [Mason] Dad!

273
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:37,270
(cheering and applause)

274
00:14:37,270 --> 00:14:39,270
- [Umpire] Batter's out!

275
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:41,770
- First base, throw to first.

276
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,180
- [Umpire] He's outta there!

277
00:14:45,180 --> 00:14:48,170
(cheering and applause)

278
00:14:48,170 --> 00:14:50,280
- Great toss, Kyle, great throw.

279
00:14:51,620 --> 00:14:56,370
- Hey, don't get too excited,
kid, that was all luck.

280
00:14:56,370 --> 00:14:57,880
- That was pretty good.

281
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,510
I mean, just another triple play, but...

282
00:15:00,510 --> 00:15:01,750
Way to go, team!

283
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,590
- Dad, I wanna go to tryouts
an hour early tomorrow

284
00:15:07,590 --> 00:15:08,760
so we can warm up.

285
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:10,650
- Well, I don't know about an hour, buddy.

286
00:15:10,650 --> 00:15:12,420
- Well, can we go practice
grounders now then?

287
00:15:12,420 --> 00:15:13,360
- Kyle, relax,

288
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,170
your mother and I are taking
care of some things right now.

289
00:15:19,260 --> 00:15:20,090
- I need money.

290
00:15:21,330 --> 00:15:23,050
- Oh, hi.

291
00:15:23,050 --> 00:15:24,160
How was practice?

292
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:25,250
- It was awesome.

293
00:15:25,250 --> 00:15:27,570
We're naming the pitching
rotation the X-Men,

294
00:15:27,570 --> 00:15:28,810
and instead of using a K,

295
00:15:28,810 --> 00:15:30,740
we're using an X to mark strikeouts.

296
00:15:30,740 --> 00:15:31,780
- Really?

297
00:15:31,780 --> 00:15:33,590
So how do you write a backwards X

298
00:15:33,590 --> 00:15:35,720
if someone gets caught looking?

299
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:36,620
- Uh...

300
00:15:37,460 --> 00:15:38,660
We didn't think of that.

301
00:15:42,190 --> 00:15:44,940
(doorbell rings)

302
00:15:51,010 --> 00:15:52,100
(Beth scoffs)

303
00:15:52,100 --> 00:15:53,350
- Unbelievable.

304
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,340
Sorry for the mess,
we're still settling in.

305
00:16:02,340 --> 00:16:04,670
- Holy hottie!

306
00:16:04,670 --> 00:16:06,360
You're Xavier's girlfriend?

307
00:16:08,500 --> 00:16:11,490
You're way too pretty to
be Xavier's girlfriend.

308
00:16:11,490 --> 00:16:13,550
- Aww, how cute, he
still calls you Xavier.

309
00:16:13,550 --> 00:16:14,720
- Yeah-huh, so cute.

310
00:16:15,620 --> 00:16:18,210
- Kyle, they are just friends.

311
00:16:18,210 --> 00:16:20,350
- Well, she's too pretty to be his friend.

312
00:16:23,390 --> 00:16:24,340
- Got enough money?

313
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:26,830
- Yeah, we better get outta here,

314
00:16:26,830 --> 00:16:28,340
you know, the movie's gonna start soon,

315
00:16:28,340 --> 00:16:30,460
so, uh, see ya later, bye.

316
00:16:34,190 --> 00:16:35,890
- Be careful, call us
if you need anything.

317
00:16:35,890 --> 00:16:36,980
- [Xavier] Of course, anything.

318
00:16:36,980 --> 00:16:38,150
- [Beth] Okay.

319
00:16:39,690 --> 00:16:42,090
- I think I'm gonna make the team.

320
00:16:42,090 --> 00:16:45,240
- Just give it your best
tomorrow, that's all you can do.

321
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:46,560
- Did you ever wanna be a baseball player

322
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,000
when you were a kid, Dad?

323
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:48,830
- Yeah,

324
00:16:49,990 --> 00:16:50,980
of course I did.

325
00:16:52,110 --> 00:16:53,560
- [Kyle] Then why didn't you?

326
00:16:54,550 --> 00:16:56,230
- (chuckles) Well, it's not that easy.

327
00:16:56,230 --> 00:16:59,030
- But you said that if you try
your best and never give up,

328
00:16:59,030 --> 00:17:00,530
you can do anything.

329
00:17:00,530 --> 00:17:04,220
- You can, and that's true
for anything, not just sports.

330
00:17:04,220 --> 00:17:05,930
- Then what happened?

331
00:17:05,930 --> 00:17:06,780
Did you get hurt?

332
00:17:07,890 --> 00:17:09,230
(Ted chuckles)

333
00:17:09,230 --> 00:17:10,170
- No, I...

334
00:17:11,030 --> 00:17:12,420
(soft music)

335
00:17:12,420 --> 00:17:13,250
Well,

336
00:17:15,850 --> 00:17:19,980
as I got older, I just started
focusing on other things,

337
00:17:19,980 --> 00:17:22,130
and then baseball became
more just for fun.

338
00:17:23,430 --> 00:17:25,630
I guess I gave up without
really knowing it.

339
00:17:26,910 --> 00:17:30,410
- Dad, can you make sure I don't give up?

340
00:17:33,940 --> 00:17:35,680
(whistle blows)

341
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:36,510
- Go!

342
00:17:37,530 --> 00:17:39,560
- Dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig.

343
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,560
3.16.

344
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:42,390
- Go!

345
00:17:44,490 --> 00:17:46,410
- Come on now.
(upbeat music)

346
00:17:46,410 --> 00:17:47,640
3.25.

347
00:17:48,990 --> 00:17:49,820
- Go!

348
00:17:54,020 --> 00:17:54,940
- Woo, 2.7!

349
00:17:56,790 --> 00:17:57,880
- 2.7.

350
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,770
- I think he's got you, AJ.

351
00:18:00,770 --> 00:18:01,780
- Go!

352
00:18:01,780 --> 00:18:02,790
Come on, let's dig!

353
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:07,330
- 2.6.

354
00:18:07,330 --> 00:18:08,500
- (chuckles) My man.

355
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:10,630
Go!

356
00:18:11,610 --> 00:18:12,710
Hustle.

357
00:18:12,710 --> 00:18:14,010
Nice wheels.

358
00:18:14,010 --> 00:18:15,160
- 2.9!

359
00:18:16,180 --> 00:18:18,060
- Listen, you need to hustle, alright?

360
00:18:18,060 --> 00:18:19,100
Go!

361
00:18:19,100 --> 00:18:21,060
Hustle, hustle!

362
00:18:21,060 --> 00:18:22,670
Hustle!
- Dig, dig, dig, dig.

363
00:18:22,670 --> 00:18:24,050
3.4.

364
00:18:24,050 --> 00:18:25,250
Nice hustle.

365
00:18:25,250 --> 00:18:26,910
- That's not happening.

366
00:18:26,910 --> 00:18:27,760
Next.

367
00:18:35,700 --> 00:18:37,250
- Nice bat.

368
00:18:37,250 --> 00:18:39,350
Where'd you find that, somebody's garbage?

369
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,280
- Hey, look alive, fellas.

370
00:18:54,910 --> 00:18:55,740
Rotate.

371
00:18:56,590 --> 00:18:59,180
(upbeat music)

372
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:08,200
- [Rick] Great toss, look
alive, Mason, look alive.

373
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:09,030
- [Chad] Get it!

374
00:19:11,310 --> 00:19:12,620
- How am I supposed to get to that?

375
00:19:12,620 --> 00:19:14,270
- Stop whining and make the play!

376
00:19:18,700 --> 00:19:19,860
Come on, Mase.

377
00:19:33,850 --> 00:19:36,600
That's it, that looks
good, fellas, more of that.

378
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:37,450
Rotate.

379
00:19:54,950 --> 00:19:56,100
(ball whips into mitt)

380
00:19:56,100 --> 00:19:57,900
- Ow! (winces)

381
00:19:57,900 --> 00:20:01,080
(upbeat music)

382
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:02,360
(winces)

383
00:20:02,360 --> 00:20:03,740
- [Chad] Let's go!

384
00:20:03,740 --> 00:20:04,570
Hustle!

385
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,670
Make a play for home,
I wanna see those arms.

386
00:20:13,830 --> 00:20:15,290
- Nice job.

387
00:20:15,290 --> 00:20:16,120
- [Chad] Rotate.

388
00:20:23,870 --> 00:20:24,700
Come on.

389
00:20:24,700 --> 00:20:25,960
- That was a good jump he had.

390
00:20:28,250 --> 00:20:31,240
(ball whips into mitt)

391
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:32,740
That was a bullet.

392
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:35,100
(whistle blows)

393
00:20:35,100 --> 00:20:36,160
- Let's bring it in.

394
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,090
- Okay, jog it in, fellas, hustle up.

395
00:20:40,750 --> 00:20:42,190
- Alright, listen up,

396
00:20:42,190 --> 00:20:44,620
anyone trying out for pitcher, stay here,

397
00:20:44,620 --> 00:20:46,910
everybody else, you can go.

398
00:20:46,910 --> 00:20:50,380
And check the website Wednesday
to see if you made the team.

399
00:20:50,380 --> 00:20:51,280
- Good work, guys.

400
00:20:54,060 --> 00:20:58,280
- We can bundle your
internet, all your wireless...

401
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,900
(phone rings)
Hi, we can bundle all your...

402
00:21:00,900 --> 00:21:03,400
(phone rings)

403
00:21:06,110 --> 00:21:08,260
We can bundle all your wireless devices

404
00:21:08,260 --> 00:21:12,050
for 30% less...
(phone rings)

405
00:21:15,170 --> 00:21:16,090
Hey, is everything okay?

406
00:21:16,090 --> 00:21:18,310
I got a sales meeting in five minutes.

407
00:21:18,310 --> 00:21:20,680
- [Beth] Kyle didn't make the team.

408
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,040
- What?

409
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,700
But, I thought they weren't
gonna post it until tomorrow?

410
00:21:25,700 --> 00:21:28,090
- [Beth] He checked right after
school and they were there.

411
00:21:28,090 --> 00:21:29,490
He wants to talk to you.

412
00:21:29,490 --> 00:21:30,500
- Okay, put him on.

413
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:32,640
- [Kyle] Dad?

414
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,290
- Hey, honey.

415
00:21:34,290 --> 00:21:35,710
- [Kyle] I got cut.

416
00:21:35,710 --> 00:21:38,240
- Yeah, yeah, Mom just told me.

417
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,480
Um, listen, I think
there might be a mistake.

418
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,790
- [Kyle] Can you call Coach and find out?

419
00:21:43,790 --> 00:21:45,980
- Yeah, I will, and, um,

420
00:21:45,980 --> 00:21:48,880
let's not worry about it until
we find out for sure, okay?

421
00:21:49,850 --> 00:21:50,680
- [Kyle] Okay.

422
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:53,660
I love you.

423
00:21:53,660 --> 00:21:54,860
- I love you too, buddy.

424
00:21:56,380 --> 00:21:57,330
I'll see you later.

425
00:22:05,190 --> 00:22:06,650
(tires squeal)

426
00:22:06,650 --> 00:22:08,540
Rick, I watched the entire tryouts,

427
00:22:08,540 --> 00:22:11,580
you can't tell me he wasn't
one of the best kids out there.

428
00:22:11,580 --> 00:22:13,810
- [Rick] The tryouts are
just one part of the process.

429
00:22:13,810 --> 00:22:15,900
- He's batting over .500,

430
00:22:15,900 --> 00:22:18,310
he plays any position you need him to.

431
00:22:18,310 --> 00:22:19,290
- [Rick] I pushed for Kyle,

432
00:22:19,290 --> 00:22:21,310
but Chad makes the final decisions,

433
00:22:21,310 --> 00:22:22,730
you need to talk to him.

434
00:22:22,730 --> 00:22:23,920
- I will talk to Chad,

435
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,340
and you know what, Rick?

436
00:22:25,340 --> 00:22:26,490
You need to get some...

437
00:22:28,780 --> 00:22:30,270
Hey.

438
00:22:30,270 --> 00:22:33,300
- Hi, that list was right,
his friend texted him.

439
00:22:33,300 --> 00:22:35,040
- I know, I talked to Rick.

440
00:22:36,260 --> 00:22:37,610
- Well, he's downstairs.

441
00:22:39,180 --> 00:22:40,230
- Wait, what's wrong?

442
00:22:41,150 --> 00:22:43,620
- Kyle got cut from the all-star team.

443
00:22:43,620 --> 00:22:44,450
- What?

444
00:22:45,580 --> 00:22:47,510
That's bullsh...

445
00:22:47,510 --> 00:22:48,620
Shoot.

446
00:22:48,620 --> 00:22:49,460
Bullshoot.

447
00:22:49,460 --> 00:22:51,420
He's probably the best kid out there.

448
00:22:51,420 --> 00:22:53,020
Better than half of our JV team.

449
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:55,360
- I'll go talk to him.

450
00:22:55,360 --> 00:22:56,200
- Yeah.

451
00:23:03,100 --> 00:23:05,700
(soft music)

452
00:23:05,700 --> 00:23:06,530
- Hey.

453
00:23:16,090 --> 00:23:17,550
Honey, it's okay to be sad,

454
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:20,400
but you can't be upset with yourself,

455
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:21,730
you didn't do anything wrong.

456
00:23:21,730 --> 00:23:23,230
The only reason you didn't make the team

457
00:23:23,230 --> 00:23:25,080
is because you were treated unfairly.

458
00:23:32,090 --> 00:23:34,300
I know it doesn't feel like it right now,

459
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,780
but this is just a minor setback, alright?

460
00:23:40,510 --> 00:23:42,990
Never let something like
this knock you off course,

461
00:23:42,990 --> 00:23:44,610
use it to make you stronger.

462
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,280
Hey, buddy, come here.

463
00:24:06,300 --> 00:24:08,140
This is gonna be okay.

464
00:24:10,540 --> 00:24:14,270
I'm gonna talk to Chad after
your game this weekend, okay?

465
00:24:16,290 --> 00:24:17,770
Besides, if that's what it's like here,

466
00:24:17,770 --> 00:24:18,630
what do you think about playing

467
00:24:18,630 --> 00:24:20,230
in a different league next year?

468
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:26,760
- I don't know.

469
00:24:29,290 --> 00:24:30,920
- [Announcer] In the air
to right, pretty well hit,

470
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,540
keep your eye on it, back
to the track, to the wall,

471
00:24:34,540 --> 00:24:35,370
and it's gone!

472
00:24:36,300 --> 00:24:40,000
Brock Holt with a solo homer
to lead off the eighth,

473
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,850
and it's a one-run game.

474
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,910
- I'm not gonna wear seven next year.

475
00:24:48,910 --> 00:24:50,180
- Hmm?

476
00:24:50,180 --> 00:24:53,880
- I'm gonna wear number
12, that's my year.

477
00:24:55,820 --> 00:24:58,730
I'm gonna be the best
player in this state.

478
00:24:58,730 --> 00:24:59,560
- Yeah?

479
00:25:02,300 --> 00:25:03,330
That's my man.

480
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:05,310
But listen,

481
00:25:07,100 --> 00:25:08,100
(upbeat music)

482
00:25:08,100 --> 00:25:09,100
it starts right now.

483
00:25:12,140 --> 00:25:15,810
When you wake up tomorrow
morning, you are on a mission.

484
00:25:17,050 --> 00:25:19,940
You don't stop training,
you don't stop practicing,

485
00:25:19,940 --> 00:25:22,380
you don't stop fighting

486
00:25:22,380 --> 00:25:25,450
until you are the absolute
best ballplayer you can be.

487
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:28,650
Got it?

488
00:25:28,650 --> 00:25:29,480
- Got it.

489
00:26:01,910 --> 00:26:04,550
- Oh, what are you doing up?

490
00:26:04,550 --> 00:26:06,920
- You said it started when
I woke up this morning.

491
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:08,680
- Yeah, um, well,

492
00:26:09,660 --> 00:26:12,630
I kinda meant that,
you know, figuratively.

493
00:26:12,630 --> 00:26:14,570
- I don't know what that means.

494
00:26:14,570 --> 00:26:15,470
Here's your glove.

495
00:26:16,620 --> 00:26:17,450
Come on.

496
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,900
(upbeat music)

497
00:26:27,530 --> 00:26:29,460
- Hey, good job, buddy.

498
00:26:29,460 --> 00:26:30,480
You know, I'm heading over.

499
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,980
- Okay, but, uh, honey, be constructive.

500
00:26:35,180 --> 00:26:36,020
- What?

501
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:39,320
- Hey.

502
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:40,630
Good job.
- Chad,

503
00:26:40,630 --> 00:26:41,590
you got a minute?

504
00:26:41,590 --> 00:26:44,200
- Yeah, what's up?

505
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,540
- Hey, I'm Ted, I'm Kyle Cooke's father.

506
00:26:46,540 --> 00:26:47,590
- Hey, man.

507
00:26:47,590 --> 00:26:48,420
- Yeah, listen,

508
00:26:49,350 --> 00:26:51,730
he's pretty crushed about
not making the travel team.

509
00:26:51,730 --> 00:26:53,370
- Yeah, he's pretty good,

510
00:26:53,370 --> 00:26:54,350
but we got a core group

511
00:26:54,350 --> 00:26:55,850
that's done really well
the last few years.

512
00:26:55,850 --> 00:26:56,790
- Yeah, no, I get that,

513
00:26:56,790 --> 00:26:59,840
but, you know, he's having
a great season this year,

514
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:01,970
and, frankly, I watched the entire tryouts

515
00:27:01,970 --> 00:27:04,530
and there weren't many
kids better than him.

516
00:27:04,530 --> 00:27:07,880
- Well, (sighs) you know,
he missed that fly ball.

517
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:09,030
(Ted chuckles)

518
00:27:09,030 --> 00:27:11,150
- Missed it? He was the
only one close to it.

519
00:27:11,150 --> 00:27:13,880
- Yeah, but that's the kinda
thing that costs you the game.

520
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,180
Listen, he's just not ready
for the all-star team.

521
00:27:19,290 --> 00:27:21,740
You should think about
having him pitch though,

522
00:27:21,740 --> 00:27:23,810
we always need pitchers.

523
00:27:23,810 --> 00:27:24,640
- Chad,

524
00:27:26,100 --> 00:27:27,170
let's quit dancing around this,

525
00:27:27,170 --> 00:27:29,380
he shoulda made the team, and you know it.

526
00:27:30,370 --> 00:27:33,040
Alright, don't give me this
load of garbage about pitching.

527
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:34,610
- I'll tell you what,

528
00:27:34,610 --> 00:27:36,090
there are a lotta good kids
that didn't make the team,

529
00:27:36,090 --> 00:27:38,200
maybe next year, we can have a B team,

530
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,910
and he gets some travel games in there,

531
00:27:40,910 --> 00:27:41,740
how about that?

532
00:27:44,690 --> 00:27:45,580
- You're a punk.

533
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:53,770
Oh yeah, have you ever swung a bat before?

534
00:27:53,770 --> 00:27:55,670
Your swing is terrible.

535
00:28:01,540 --> 00:28:02,370
- Okay.

536
00:28:02,370 --> 00:28:03,210
How'd it go?

537
00:28:03,210 --> 00:28:04,040
- Oh, it went great.

538
00:28:04,940 --> 00:28:07,240
I think we'll be joining
a new league next year.

539
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:08,460
You ready to practice?

540
00:28:08,460 --> 00:28:09,400
- Born ready.

541
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,870
(upbeat music)

542
00:28:11,870 --> 00:28:12,700
(ball hits fence)

543
00:28:12,700 --> 00:28:13,990
- Keep your head in there.

544
00:28:16,060 --> 00:28:16,890
(ball hits fence)

545
00:28:16,890 --> 00:28:19,270
Don't pull your head
away, even after contact,

546
00:28:19,270 --> 00:28:20,840
your eyes never leave the tee.

547
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:21,880
Okay? Focus.

548
00:28:25,250 --> 00:28:26,880
- Can you pitch some to me now?

549
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:28,410
- Nope, fundamentals, Kyle.

550
00:28:30,380 --> 00:28:33,210
(ball hits fence)

551
00:28:40,660 --> 00:28:43,550
Get your glove down earlier,
Kyle, ready position.

552
00:28:43,550 --> 00:28:44,380
Here we go.

553
00:28:48,340 --> 00:28:49,610
Nice, that's better.

554
00:28:51,410 --> 00:28:52,690
- Can we do some backhands?

555
00:28:52,690 --> 00:28:54,610
- Nope, fundamentals, buddy.

556
00:28:57,220 --> 00:28:58,720
Nice stop.

557
00:29:04,010 --> 00:29:08,160
Take a couple steps back,
then come in for the catch.

558
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:09,470
Forward motion.

559
00:29:16,130 --> 00:29:17,730
- Can we do some diving catches?

560
00:29:19,690 --> 00:29:20,640
Okay, fundamentals.

561
00:29:28,870 --> 00:29:29,800
Hi, Brooke.

562
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:32,750
- Hey, Kyle.

563
00:29:32,750 --> 00:29:34,240
Sorry you didn't make the team.

564
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,430
- It's fine, I'll make it next year,

565
00:29:36,430 --> 00:29:39,060
win states, probably make
it to the World Series.

566
00:29:39,060 --> 00:29:39,920
- (chuckles) Oh yeah?

567
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:40,750
- Yeah.

568
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:43,030
Did you know that if you two married,

569
00:29:43,030 --> 00:29:45,000
your name would be Brooke Cooke?

570
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,080
(Brooke chuckles)

571
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:48,980
Hey, Xavier?

572
00:29:50,030 --> 00:29:51,010
Hey, Xavier?

573
00:29:53,140 --> 00:29:54,120
X?

574
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,540
Can you practice with me after school?

575
00:29:57,540 --> 00:29:58,670
- I don't know.

576
00:29:58,670 --> 00:30:00,170
- What do you mean? Help your brother.

577
00:30:00,170 --> 00:30:01,590
- Yeah, help your brother.

578
00:30:05,210 --> 00:30:06,630
What do you wanna be?

579
00:30:06,630 --> 00:30:08,210
- I wanna be a scientist.

580
00:30:08,210 --> 00:30:10,760
- She's gonna work on
artificial intelligence,

581
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:11,660
create the future.

582
00:30:14,570 --> 00:30:17,900
- Dad, tell Xavier to practice
with me during fall ball.

583
00:30:17,900 --> 00:30:19,940
- Practice with your brother.

584
00:30:19,940 --> 00:30:24,200
Kyle, you can train on
your own too, you know?

585
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:28,440
Remember, whenever you're not practicing,

586
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,440
somewhere, someone else is,

587
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,600
and when you meet him, he will win.

588
00:30:35,410 --> 00:30:37,310
So be the one who's always practicing.

589
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,750
(blows on hand)

590
00:30:59,180 --> 00:31:02,370
Swing looks great, you're
just a little ahead of it.

591
00:31:02,370 --> 00:31:03,310
Timing, remember,

592
00:31:03,310 --> 00:31:05,360
timing's the most
important part of hitting.

593
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:06,860
Sit back and wait on this one.

594
00:31:14,020 --> 00:31:16,330
- Dad, that's my first homer.

595
00:31:16,330 --> 00:31:17,480
- First of many, buddy.

596
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:20,800
Alright, I'm gonna throw a little faster.

597
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,260
Just lay off, watch a few
go by, get your timing.

598
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,400
Alright, swing away.

599
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,980
(upbeat music)

600
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:47,830
Perfect.

601
00:32:00,130 --> 00:32:02,090
Alright, I'm gonna throw even faster.

602
00:32:02,090 --> 00:32:03,540
Time it coming outta my hand.

603
00:32:12,470 --> 00:32:14,470
- Throw it even harder.

604
00:32:14,470 --> 00:32:15,300
- Faster?

605
00:32:16,990 --> 00:32:19,570
You think you can handle the cheese?

606
00:32:19,570 --> 00:32:21,520
I pitched in college, remember?

607
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:22,350
- Come on, Dad.

608
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,480
- Alright, don't get too excited,

609
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:28,580
'cause I'm gonna blow this right past you.

610
00:32:29,950 --> 00:32:31,050
Here comes the heater.

611
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,220
(Ted laughs)

612
00:32:51,340 --> 00:32:53,590
Now you know what the
pros have to deal with.

613
00:32:54,660 --> 00:32:56,000
- One more.

614
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,410
(wind howls)

615
00:33:00,490 --> 00:33:03,400
("Deck the Halls")

616
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:10,570
(Ted whistles "Deck the Halls")

617
00:33:10,570 --> 00:33:11,400
- [Beth] Kyle!

618
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:12,230
- [Kyle] What?

619
00:33:12,230 --> 00:33:13,530
- It's brand new,

620
00:33:13,530 --> 00:33:15,840
your grandparents just got
you that for Christmas.

621
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:17,780
- I really like it, but
I can't throw in it.

622
00:33:17,780 --> 00:33:19,230
- Then don't practice in it.

623
00:33:19,230 --> 00:33:21,050
- But then the rest of me gets cold.

624
00:33:32,230 --> 00:33:36,800
- Okay, uh, no more
outdoor winter practice.

625
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:38,740
- You know, why don't
you two give it a break?

626
00:33:38,740 --> 00:33:40,290
- Mom, I'm not stopping.

627
00:33:48,830 --> 00:33:50,780
Can't you make Xavier practice with me?

628
00:33:51,930 --> 00:33:53,350
- What's wrong with me?

629
00:33:53,350 --> 00:33:56,910
- Nothing, but he never
plays with me anymore.

630
00:33:56,910 --> 00:33:59,640
- Ah, he still loves you, buddy,

631
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:03,400
he's just, well, you know,
he's a young man now,

632
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,950
and his interests change a little bit.

633
00:34:07,060 --> 00:34:08,970
- So you can't make him do it?

634
00:34:08,970 --> 00:34:13,350
- Honey, honestly, I don't
think it's gonna happen.

635
00:34:20,610 --> 00:34:22,580
Alright, get your hips around.

636
00:34:27,390 --> 00:34:30,500
- Dad, aren't you supposed
to be at work now?

637
00:34:31,430 --> 00:34:36,000
- Ah, I'm in sales, so, I
can shuffle things around.

638
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,120
- I don't wanna have to move again, Dad.

639
00:34:41,330 --> 00:34:43,590
So if Xavier practiced with me,

640
00:34:43,590 --> 00:34:44,860
then you could do more work,

641
00:34:44,860 --> 00:34:47,100
and then everything would be fine.

642
00:34:47,100 --> 00:34:48,490
- Kyle, I can't force him.

643
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:50,390
No one can.

644
00:34:54,860 --> 00:34:57,280
(soft music)

645
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:22,890
- Hey, you coming up?

646
00:35:23,850 --> 00:35:24,680
- Yeah.

647
00:35:29,290 --> 00:35:30,950
- You wanna talk?

648
00:35:30,950 --> 00:35:33,340
- I don't know if I can make this work.

649
00:35:33,340 --> 00:35:35,370
I feel like I've ruined everything for us.

650
00:35:36,550 --> 00:35:38,920
I mean, look at me, I'm a
loser for crying out loud,

651
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,450
my boss is 27 years old.

652
00:35:42,540 --> 00:35:44,750
I know 10 times as much
as anyone in the region

653
00:35:44,750 --> 00:35:47,310
and I can't make a sale to save my life.

654
00:35:47,310 --> 00:35:49,730
- Just give it time, you'll figure it out.

655
00:35:52,860 --> 00:35:56,040
- I don't want the boys to
have a failure for a father.

656
00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,950
- (scoffs) Ted, would you just stop it?

657
00:35:59,960 --> 00:36:03,060
You know, you should listen
to what you say to the kids.

658
00:36:03,060 --> 00:36:05,130
Take your own advice, it works.

659
00:36:06,530 --> 00:36:10,560
And if it doesn't, we can
always move in with my parents.

660
00:36:13,900 --> 00:36:15,900
That was just a little extra motivation.

661
00:36:25,140 --> 00:36:27,470
(Ted sighs)

662
00:36:35,180 --> 00:36:37,390
- Buddy, good news,

663
00:36:38,390 --> 00:36:41,320
I got you signed up
for a team in Brighton.

664
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,090
They're not even in our district.

665
00:36:43,090 --> 00:36:44,150
- Alright.

666
00:36:44,150 --> 00:36:45,400
- Isn't that far away?

667
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:46,970
- It's, like, 40 minutes away,

668
00:36:46,970 --> 00:36:48,820
they do it differently there.

669
00:36:48,820 --> 00:36:49,650
Alright,

670
00:36:49,650 --> 00:36:51,340
so all the new kids go for
an evaluation in two weeks,

671
00:36:51,340 --> 00:36:53,710
and then they divide the kids
into an A, B, and C team.

672
00:36:53,710 --> 00:36:55,460
At the end of the season,

673
00:36:55,460 --> 00:36:57,880
the best 12 kids on the A team

674
00:36:57,880 --> 00:36:59,470
get selected for the all-star team,

675
00:36:59,470 --> 00:37:00,520
but here's the thing,

676
00:37:01,500 --> 00:37:03,330
they use a selection committee.

677
00:37:03,330 --> 00:37:04,570
Two of the coaches' kids

678
00:37:04,570 --> 00:37:06,820
didn't even make the
all-star team last year.

679
00:37:08,720 --> 00:37:09,650
Where are you going?

680
00:37:09,650 --> 00:37:10,760
- [Kyle] Practice.

681
00:37:13,230 --> 00:37:16,850
- Uh, don't you have to live
in a city to play on its team?

682
00:37:16,850 --> 00:37:17,680
- You do.

683
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:19,570
I, uh, I rented an apartment.

684
00:37:21,100 --> 00:37:22,940
- Ted, have you lost your mind?

685
00:37:22,940 --> 00:37:24,220
- It's a really cheap apartment,

686
00:37:24,220 --> 00:37:26,060
and, uh, we might be living there anyway

687
00:37:26,060 --> 00:37:27,900
if things don't turn around here soon.

688
00:37:30,500 --> 00:37:33,010
Honey,
(upbeat music)

689
00:37:33,010 --> 00:37:34,160
this is his one shot.

690
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,050
He doesn't get to be 12 again.

691
00:37:44,650 --> 00:37:46,640
Right, and they'll never
let him on the team here,

692
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,390
they wouldn't let Hank
Aaron on the team here.

693
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,460
And I know it's crazy, but I gotta do it.

694
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:55,190
Okay?

695
00:37:57,060 --> 00:37:59,410
We have to give him a
chance to live his dream.

696
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,180
- Then make him a champion.

697
00:38:03,180 --> 00:38:05,850
(intense music)

698
00:38:12,100 --> 00:38:12,930
- Go!

699
00:38:12,930 --> 00:38:14,100
Dig, dig, dig.

700
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:16,310
Nice.

701
00:38:41,380 --> 00:38:42,430
- 47,

702
00:38:42,430 --> 00:38:43,260
48,

703
00:38:43,260 --> 00:38:44,090
49,

704
00:38:44,090 --> 00:38:44,920
50.

705
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,120
- Awesome, man, awesome!

706
00:38:49,010 --> 00:38:50,420
Now we gotta get some protein in you,

707
00:38:50,420 --> 00:38:52,520
replenish those muscles.

708
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:53,490
- What should I eat?

709
00:38:53,490 --> 00:38:56,200
- Meat, chicken, maybe make you some tuna.

710
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:57,550
- Ugh, I hate tuna.

711
00:38:57,550 --> 00:38:59,880
- Hey, it doesn't matter
what it tastes like,

712
00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:02,050
we just gotta get it in your system.

713
00:39:02,050 --> 00:39:03,800
Rocky drank raw eggs.

714
00:39:10,700 --> 00:39:12,580
- [Announcer] Number 17,
and he hits one to left.

715
00:39:12,580 --> 00:39:16,250
(crowd cheers and applauds)

716
00:39:18,130 --> 00:39:19,280
- I shoulda tried that.

717
00:39:21,870 --> 00:39:24,200
(footsteps)

718
00:39:25,810 --> 00:39:28,080
- Hey, Kyle, how's it going?

719
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:29,540
- Hi.

720
00:39:29,540 --> 00:39:31,240
X, can you practice with me?

721
00:39:31,240 --> 00:39:33,280
I only have two weeks
before my evaluation.

722
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,000
- I can't, I won't have time with school,

723
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:36,560
and practice, and everything.

724
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:38,360
- Please, it only has to be a half-hour,

725
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,450
doesn't even have to be every day.

726
00:39:40,450 --> 00:39:41,280
- Sorry, bud.

727
00:39:43,240 --> 00:39:45,970
- So, if you had more
time, you'd help Kyle?

728
00:39:47,140 --> 00:39:48,760
- Yeah, I mean, I'd
love to help him, but--

729
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:51,240
- Well, well, let's break up then.

730
00:39:52,170 --> 00:39:53,010
- What?

731
00:39:53,010 --> 00:39:54,810
- That'll give you a lotta time back.

732
00:39:54,810 --> 00:39:56,180
- Um...

733
00:39:56,180 --> 00:39:57,320
- And then I'm gone for good.

734
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:58,990
(upbeat music)

735
00:39:58,990 --> 00:39:59,820
- Hold on.

736
00:40:05,990 --> 00:40:07,860
Weight on your toes.

737
00:40:07,860 --> 00:40:11,510
Using distribution, and
watch the pitcher's knee.

738
00:40:13,150 --> 00:40:15,740
Throw with your hips
just as much as your arm.

739
00:40:21,570 --> 00:40:25,310
Ready?

740
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:29,380
- Ah, one more lap.

741
00:40:35,230 --> 00:40:37,650
- [Xavier] Through the chest.

742
00:40:50,500 --> 00:40:52,620
- There's no way I'm doing those.

743
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:55,120
- Alright, watch this.

744
00:41:14,110 --> 00:41:15,400
Alright, you ready? Here you go.

745
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:18,320
- [Kyle] Come on, hit 'em harder.

746
00:41:22,110 --> 00:41:23,300
Harder.

747
00:41:23,300 --> 00:41:25,160
- They don't need to
be fast for this drill.

748
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:26,650
- These are too easy.

749
00:41:26,650 --> 00:41:27,480
- Okay, fine.

750
00:41:32,260 --> 00:41:33,090
(Xavier chuckles)

751
00:41:33,090 --> 00:41:34,610
- You can slow 'em down now.

752
00:41:34,610 --> 00:41:36,610
- That's what I thought.

753
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:41,390
- Go.

754
00:41:44,720 --> 00:41:47,340
Come on, Kyle, whoop that hot-shot!

755
00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:56,190
Good job.

756
00:41:56,190 --> 00:41:57,190
- Thank you.

757
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:05,590
(Xavier and Brooke chuckle)

758
00:42:06,550 --> 00:42:08,380
- I don't wanna pitch.

759
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:12,960
- You don't have to, but
you gotta get over it.

760
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:14,060
Mental strength in baseball

761
00:42:14,060 --> 00:42:15,710
is just as important as physical.

762
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,080
You need to tune everything out.

763
00:42:21,190 --> 00:42:22,040
Focus.

764
00:42:23,670 --> 00:42:25,860
Laser focus.

765
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:36,740
Alright?

766
00:42:36,740 --> 00:42:39,350
Now, give it a shot, okay?

767
00:42:46,550 --> 00:42:50,240
Try and, uh, try and get close, okay?

768
00:42:50,240 --> 00:42:51,070
You got this.

769
00:43:01,450 --> 00:43:02,700
Alright, close your eyes.

770
00:43:05,190 --> 00:43:06,020
Close 'em.

771
00:43:07,810 --> 00:43:08,960
Let your mind go blank,

772
00:43:10,030 --> 00:43:13,020
picture a black sky with only one star

773
00:43:13,020 --> 00:43:15,110
right in the middle of it.

774
00:43:15,110 --> 00:43:15,980
Focus on it.

775
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:19,920
Open your eyes,

776
00:43:21,500 --> 00:43:22,450
but not your mind.

777
00:43:24,050 --> 00:43:24,880
See that ball?

778
00:43:26,710 --> 00:43:27,860
That ball is your star.

779
00:43:28,950 --> 00:43:31,150
Focus and hit it.

780
00:43:42,090 --> 00:43:45,530
You are now the dragon warrior.

781
00:43:45,530 --> 00:43:47,380
Go.
(Oriental music)

782
00:43:47,380 --> 00:43:48,480
Nice job today, buddy.

783
00:43:49,370 --> 00:43:50,770
You're gonna kill it tomorrow.

784
00:43:57,330 --> 00:43:59,990
(intense music)

785
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:17,570
- I can do this.

786
00:44:17,570 --> 00:44:18,550
I can do this.

787
00:44:36,650 --> 00:44:39,900
(Kyle gags and coughs)

788
00:44:42,860 --> 00:44:44,600
- [Ted] You sure you got everything?

789
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,070
- Yeah, I checked last night.

790
00:44:46,070 --> 00:44:50,230
- Uh, looks a little
different for some reason.

791
00:44:50,230 --> 00:44:51,420
Check if your bat's in there.

792
00:44:51,420 --> 00:44:52,510
- I know it is.

793
00:44:53,470 --> 00:44:55,060
- Just check before I leave.

794
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:01,420
(soft music)

795
00:45:03,590 --> 00:45:05,690
That's the last piece of the puzzle, Kyle,

796
00:45:06,650 --> 00:45:07,950
now show 'em what you got.

797
00:45:09,110 --> 00:45:10,820
And, uh, don't tell your mother, huh?

798
00:45:10,820 --> 00:45:13,480
(Kyle chuckles)

799
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:20,310
Hey,

800
00:45:20,310 --> 00:45:21,140
Ted Cooke.

801
00:45:21,140 --> 00:45:21,970
- Hey.

802
00:45:21,970 --> 00:45:22,800
- Uh, this is Kyle.

803
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:24,500
- Hey, Kyle, Coach John.

804
00:45:24,500 --> 00:45:25,330
- Hi, Coach.

805
00:45:25,330 --> 00:45:29,800
- Oh, that's quite a few
new players out there.

806
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:32,410
- Oh, a lot of them are
from last year's A team,

807
00:45:32,410 --> 00:45:35,010
they, uh, tell me that
they're here for the workout,

808
00:45:35,010 --> 00:45:38,470
but they're really here to
just check out the competition.

809
00:45:38,470 --> 00:45:39,920
Why don't you go out and warm up

810
00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:42,310
and introduce yourself
to the rest of the guys?

811
00:45:42,310 --> 00:45:43,140
- Okay.

812
00:45:46,190 --> 00:45:48,340
- You're, uh, Xavier's dad too, right?

813
00:45:49,220 --> 00:45:50,390
- Yeah.

814
00:45:50,390 --> 00:45:52,150
- (chuckles) That boy is building himself

815
00:45:52,150 --> 00:45:53,470
quite a reputation.

816
00:45:53,470 --> 00:45:56,260
He struck out 11 in a row
against our high school squad.

817
00:45:56,260 --> 00:45:58,670
- Yeah, he was dialed in.

818
00:45:58,670 --> 00:46:01,030
- Please tell me Kyle can pitch like that.

819
00:46:01,030 --> 00:46:01,860
- He can,

820
00:46:02,890 --> 00:46:06,650
probably better, but, uh, but he doesn't.

821
00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:08,630
Um,

822
00:46:10,140 --> 00:46:11,320
he used to pitch, but,

823
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:15,970
when he was nine, he
hit a kid in the ribs,

824
00:46:15,970 --> 00:46:17,460
and the kid's heart stopped.

825
00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:21,520
Kid collapsed, didn't look
like he was gonna make it.

826
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,410
An EMT that was sitting in the stands

827
00:46:23,410 --> 00:46:24,950
came rushing out and revived the kid

828
00:46:24,950 --> 00:46:25,980
right there on the field,

829
00:46:25,980 --> 00:46:26,810
thank God.

830
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:31,760
Kyle was distraught, said
he'd never pitch again,

831
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:32,590
and he hasn't.

832
00:46:35,030 --> 00:46:36,980
Yeah, he doesn't like to talk about it.

833
00:46:39,210 --> 00:46:40,870
- Understood.

834
00:46:40,870 --> 00:46:41,700
Take care.

835
00:46:41,700 --> 00:46:42,530
- Thanks.

836
00:46:43,530 --> 00:46:44,530
- Alright, let's go.

837
00:46:46,210 --> 00:46:47,040
Come on.

838
00:46:48,290 --> 00:46:49,710
- You guys loose?

839
00:46:49,710 --> 00:46:50,670
- [Players] Yeah.

840
00:46:50,670 --> 00:46:51,500
- Good.

841
00:46:51,500 --> 00:46:55,370
Okay, guys from last year,
find a place in the field,

842
00:46:55,370 --> 00:46:58,130
new guys, head on in for BP.

843
00:47:05,350 --> 00:47:07,200
- Anything you're looking to see, Coach?

844
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,740
- Nope, just make solid contact.

845
00:47:09,740 --> 00:47:11,570
Try to hit to all fields if you can.

846
00:47:11,570 --> 00:47:12,400
- Got it.

847
00:47:29,190 --> 00:47:32,540
- Does this kid even know how to hit?

848
00:47:32,540 --> 00:47:33,990
- Something wrong with those?

849
00:47:36,570 --> 00:47:38,030
Alright, swing away then.

850
00:47:39,750 --> 00:47:42,250
(tense music)

851
00:47:53,530 --> 00:47:54,360
Nice hit.

852
00:48:15,180 --> 00:48:16,010
- Holy...

853
00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:41,660
- Well, that's certainly
hitting to all fields.

854
00:48:42,900 --> 00:48:46,600
- Kyle, put one in the woods!

855
00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:47,430
- Go for it.

856
00:48:59,510 --> 00:49:00,350
What are you doing?

857
00:49:00,350 --> 00:49:01,870
- Just pitch it the same speed.

858
00:49:20,620 --> 00:49:21,450
- Listen up,

859
00:49:21,450 --> 00:49:24,090
if your parents have any
vacation plans this summer,

860
00:49:24,090 --> 00:49:26,440
you better tell them to cancel them.

861
00:49:27,630 --> 00:49:30,300
(John chuckles)

862
00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:37,420
- Jimmy,

863
00:49:37,420 --> 00:49:38,590
hey, call your AD

864
00:49:38,590 --> 00:49:41,230
and tell him to send a scout down here.

865
00:49:41,230 --> 00:49:42,820
No, he's 12.

866
00:49:42,820 --> 00:49:45,890
No, trust me, you wanna
start watching this kid now.

867
00:49:56,740 --> 00:49:59,120
- Hey, Kyle, guess what?

868
00:50:00,540 --> 00:50:02,160
You made the A team.

869
00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:04,440
- Congratulations, sweetheart.

870
00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:05,570
- Cool.

871
00:50:05,570 --> 00:50:06,920
- Cool?

872
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:09,000
That's it, just cool, huh?

873
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:10,840
- Yeah, cool.

874
00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:14,120
We're gonna win districts,
then states, then regionals,

875
00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:16,650
and then we're gonna win the World Series.

876
00:50:16,650 --> 00:50:17,710
- Okay.

877
00:50:17,710 --> 00:50:21,680
Um, well, Brighton got swept
in the districts last year,

878
00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:22,930
so let's just take it one game at a--

879
00:50:22,930 --> 00:50:24,890
- Dad, we're winning districts,

880
00:50:24,890 --> 00:50:27,120
we're not losing a game this year.

881
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:27,950
- Really?

882
00:50:29,010 --> 00:50:30,960
- Not if I have anything to do with it.

883
00:50:34,790 --> 00:50:35,620
- [Beth] Whoa.

884
00:50:35,620 --> 00:50:36,560
- [Ted] Kyle...

885
00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:38,220
- What is that bat?

886
00:50:40,720 --> 00:50:43,450
- Yeah, yeah, what's that bat?

887
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:45,550
- Okay, boys,

888
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:48,620
this is our team.

889
00:50:48,620 --> 00:50:51,100
We're gonna be spending a
lotta time together this year,

890
00:50:51,100 --> 00:50:54,220
and our number one goal is
to improve on last year.

891
00:50:54,220 --> 00:50:55,050
Right?

892
00:50:55,050 --> 00:50:55,970
- [Players] Yes, Coach.

893
00:50:55,970 --> 00:50:59,040
- I wanna see all you guys working hard,

894
00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,390
alright, support your teammates.

895
00:51:01,390 --> 00:51:04,990
Okay, I need you guys
focused on every single play,

896
00:51:04,990 --> 00:51:07,700
every single pitch.

897
00:51:07,700 --> 00:51:09,650
Alright, we had a few
mental errors last year,

898
00:51:09,650 --> 00:51:11,820
and it cost us some games.

899
00:51:11,820 --> 00:51:13,260
That will not fly this year,

900
00:51:13,260 --> 00:51:15,780
every team is better
than they were last year.

901
00:51:16,780 --> 00:51:19,620
And I guarantee you that every 12-year-old

902
00:51:19,620 --> 00:51:21,820
has the same dream that you guys have,

903
00:51:22,690 --> 00:51:24,500
making it to the World Series.

904
00:51:27,380 --> 00:51:30,400
We have one new player
on our team this year,

905
00:51:30,400 --> 00:51:33,490
Kyle Cooke, you might
remember him from tryouts.

906
00:51:33,490 --> 00:51:34,370
(Troy chuckles)

907
00:51:34,370 --> 00:51:35,200
- Yeah.

908
00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:37,550
- Kyle, how come you're able to make

909
00:51:37,550 --> 00:51:39,360
that kinda contact on every swing?

910
00:51:40,290 --> 00:51:42,650
- Um, I practice a lot.

911
00:51:42,650 --> 00:51:43,810
- And how do you always know

912
00:51:43,810 --> 00:51:45,720
how to get your body positioned properly

913
00:51:45,720 --> 00:51:47,520
when you're making a play?

914
00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:49,600
- I practice that a lot too.

915
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:51,090
- What about throwing?

916
00:51:51,090 --> 00:51:53,380
How do you keep up that accuracy?

917
00:51:53,380 --> 00:51:54,680
- Practice.

918
00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:58,510
- And how do you do that
crazy body-swingy thing?

919
00:51:58,510 --> 00:51:59,350
(John chuckles)

920
00:51:59,350 --> 00:52:01,810
- Oh, I just kinda made
that one up on my own.

921
00:52:01,810 --> 00:52:02,640
(Troy chuckles)

922
00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:04,140
- Alright, listen up, boys,

923
00:52:04,140 --> 00:52:05,630
you wanna have fun this year, right?

924
00:52:05,630 --> 00:52:06,460
- [Players] Yes, Coach.

925
00:52:06,460 --> 00:52:09,450
- Why play the game if
we're not gonna have fun?

926
00:52:09,450 --> 00:52:11,150
I'll tell you right now,

927
00:52:11,150 --> 00:52:13,280
the better you are at baseball,

928
00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:16,480
the more fun you're gonna
have playing baseball.

929
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:19,060
And the only way you're gonna
get better is by practicing.

930
00:52:19,060 --> 00:52:22,880
Every day, whenever you
have free time, practice.

931
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:25,090
And if you have a question, ask somebody.

932
00:52:25,090 --> 00:52:25,920
You with me?

933
00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:26,760
- [Players] Yes, coach.

934
00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:28,550
- Alright, let's go practice.

935
00:52:28,550 --> 00:52:29,380
Come on.

936
00:52:30,580 --> 00:52:32,490
- Let's go, guys.

937
00:52:32,490 --> 00:52:35,850
(car door closes)

938
00:52:35,850 --> 00:52:38,480
- Hey, what's going on?

939
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:39,310
- Nothing.

940
00:52:40,310 --> 00:52:41,890
Practicing the knuckle curve.

941
00:52:41,890 --> 00:52:42,920
- Oh yeah?

942
00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:43,760
- Yeah.

943
00:52:44,830 --> 00:52:46,280
- Good pitch.

944
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:47,960
- Looking good.

945
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:48,800
How you doin', champ?

946
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:49,630
- [Kyle] Good.

947
00:52:57,090 --> 00:52:57,920
- Ta-da!

948
00:52:58,770 --> 00:53:01,110
- (chuckles) Hey, what are those for?

949
00:53:01,110 --> 00:53:02,750
- For your enjoyment.

950
00:53:02,750 --> 00:53:04,080
- Mm.

951
00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:06,410
- And I closed that bundle deal.

952
00:53:06,410 --> 00:53:10,080
- Honey, congratulations.

953
00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:12,740
- Yeah, well, let's not get too excited,

954
00:53:12,740 --> 00:53:15,830
it's a small thing, but
hopefully the first of many.

955
00:53:15,830 --> 00:53:17,080
- Well, we just got the schedule,

956
00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:20,420
and their tournaments
start on the same day.

957
00:53:20,420 --> 00:53:21,460
So I'm gonna call their coaches,

958
00:53:21,460 --> 00:53:22,940
see if maybe they can
bring 'em to some games.

959
00:53:22,940 --> 00:53:24,020
- No, let me know the days,

960
00:53:24,020 --> 00:53:25,820
maybe I can take off a little early.

961
00:53:26,810 --> 00:53:28,080
- Are you sure?

962
00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:30,110
- Yeah, I can manage it.

963
00:53:30,110 --> 00:53:30,950
- Are you sure?

964
00:53:32,210 --> 00:53:34,160
- Didn't you just ask me if I was sure?

965
00:53:35,180 --> 00:53:36,490
- But are you sure you're sure?

966
00:53:36,490 --> 00:53:39,860
- I'm sure I'm sure. (Beth chuckles)

967
00:53:44,970 --> 00:53:46,590
- What's wrong?

968
00:53:46,590 --> 00:53:48,180
- I'm pitching against Brighton today.

969
00:53:48,180 --> 00:53:51,300
- They have a kid who's seven
for seven with five homers.

970
00:53:51,300 --> 00:53:53,950
He's, like, six-feet tall
and has a beard already.

971
00:53:53,950 --> 00:53:55,150
- I think I'll walk him.

972
00:54:12,900 --> 00:54:14,880
- You know that guy's a scout, right?

973
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:16,000
I gotta go warm up.

974
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:20,900
- Me too.
(upbeat music)

975
00:54:20,900 --> 00:54:21,730
- Come on now.

976
00:54:24,430 --> 00:54:27,770
(cheering and applause)

977
00:54:31,070 --> 00:54:32,150
Yeah, we win!

978
00:54:33,010 --> 00:54:34,290
Nice.

979
00:54:34,290 --> 00:54:36,460
Okay, fellas, bring it in.

980
00:54:44,260 --> 00:54:47,040
Reg, lay off the high ones!

981
00:54:49,230 --> 00:54:51,470
How many times I have to tell ya? Come on!

982
00:54:58,170 --> 00:55:00,750
(upbeat music)

983
00:55:03,290 --> 00:55:06,620
(cheering and applause)

984
00:55:08,910 --> 00:55:11,460
(players celebrate)

985
00:55:11,460 --> 00:55:15,100
(cheering and applause)

986
00:55:15,100 --> 00:55:16,910
(Chad chuckles)

987
00:55:16,910 --> 00:55:18,390
Yeah!

988
00:55:18,390 --> 00:55:19,230
Woo!

989
00:55:19,230 --> 00:55:21,560
(Chad laughs)

990
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:25,140
That was a little high, but
I'll forgive ya this time.

991
00:55:25,140 --> 00:55:28,140
(players celebrate)

992
00:55:31,640 --> 00:55:34,730
(indistinct chatter)

993
00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:41,400
- [Player] Let's go, Alex,
this kid can't hit you,

994
00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:42,550
blow it past him now.

995
00:55:46,900 --> 00:55:47,750
- Strike.

996
00:55:47,750 --> 00:55:49,560
- He's a looker, he's not gonna swing.

997
00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:51,070
Two more, sit him down now.

998
00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:15,530
(cheering and applause)

999
00:56:21,770 --> 00:56:25,370

(cheering and applause)

1002
00:56:39,620 --> 00:56:40,930
- Alright, listen up.

1003
00:56:40,930 --> 00:56:44,310
Hey, pipe down, come on
now, this is important.

1004
00:56:44,310 --> 00:56:45,520
We're up 13 now,

1005
00:56:45,520 --> 00:56:47,290
so we get the next three outs

1006
00:56:47,290 --> 00:56:49,080
and we end this game early, alright?

1007
00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:50,870
Max, you take third base,

1008
00:56:50,870 --> 00:56:52,960
Mason, you're pitching, alright?

1009
00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:55,090
You close this one out
for us, alright, buddy.

1010
00:56:55,090 --> 00:56:57,180
Bring it in, Oakwood on three, alright?

1011
00:56:57,180 --> 00:56:58,930
One, two, three,

1012
00:56:58,930 --> 00:56:59,780
- [All] Oakwood!

1013
00:56:59,780 --> 00:57:00,690
- Let's go.

1014
00:57:01,660 --> 00:57:02,930
Come on, Mase.

1015
00:57:02,930 --> 00:57:06,270
(cheering and applause)

1016
00:57:14,380 --> 00:57:15,650
Get under it, Aiden.

1017
00:57:15,650 --> 00:57:16,480
Two hands.

1018
00:57:17,980 --> 00:57:20,460
(cheering and applause)

1019
00:57:20,460 --> 00:57:21,710
- Yeah!

1020
00:57:21,710 --> 00:57:24,980
Good catch, Aiden, good catch!

1021
00:57:24,980 --> 00:57:26,680
Alright, boys, line 'er up.

1022
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,220
Great job out there today, boys.

1023
00:57:29,220 --> 00:57:30,940
Great hitting all the
way through the lineup.

1024
00:57:30,940 --> 00:57:32,570
Jimmy, way to make the double play.

1025
00:57:32,570 --> 00:57:33,400
- Thank you.

1026
00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:35,850
- Let's just keep it together
these last two games.

1027
00:57:35,850 --> 00:57:39,160
We win this district, we
roll through states, right?

1028
00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:40,060
Let's bring it in.

1029
00:57:41,210 --> 00:57:42,580
Oakwood, one, two, three,

1030
00:57:42,580 --> 00:57:43,910
- [All] Oakwood!

1031
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:46,350
- Nice game, fellas, nice game.

1032
00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:52,340
- Hey, guys, I told you
once we got to districts,

1033
00:57:52,340 --> 00:57:54,000
we play to win.

1034
00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:56,850
I let your parents know
you wouldn't play much.

1035
00:57:56,850 --> 00:57:58,090
You're here in case somebody gets hurt

1036
00:57:58,090 --> 00:57:59,790
or if there's an emergency, right?

1037
00:58:02,170 --> 00:58:03,320
That's all I can tell ya.

1038
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:11,080
- Let's go.

1039
00:58:11,530 --> 00:58:16,320
- Let's go, Evans, we need
some runs or this game's over.

1040
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:19,650
(cheering and applause)

1041
00:58:20,500 --> 00:58:21,880
- I got it, I got it, I got it!

1042
00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:23,730
- Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine!

1043
00:58:23,730 --> 00:58:26,230
(tense music)

1044
00:58:29,250 --> 00:58:30,080
- Out!

1045
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:33,120
(cheering and applause)

1046
00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:33,950
- Yeah!

1047
00:58:35,390 --> 00:58:36,480
(players celebrate)

1048
00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:38,570
- [Players] Danny! Danny! Danny!

1049
00:58:38,570 --> 00:58:40,890
Danny! Danny! Danny!

1050
00:58:40,890 --> 00:58:42,560
Danny! Danny! Danny!

1051
00:58:43,550 --> 00:58:46,440
- Yes, keep going, go, go, go, go!

1052
00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:49,000
Dig it out, dig it out, yeah, you got it!

1053
00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:51,410
Cruise it in, yeah!

1054
00:58:51,410 --> 00:58:53,030
Alright!

1055
00:58:53,030 --> 00:58:55,450
Let's line it up, boys, nice!

1056
00:58:56,730 --> 00:58:57,570
Good job.
- Nice hustle,

1057
00:58:57,570 --> 00:58:59,070
good game, Sandbridge.

1058
00:58:59,070 --> 00:59:00,970
Nice job, guys.
- Good game.

1059
00:59:00,970 --> 00:59:02,010
- Good game.

1060
00:59:02,010 --> 00:59:02,840
- Hey, Rick,

1061
00:59:05,910 --> 00:59:08,390
let's book those hotel rooms
now for the World Series.

1062
00:59:08,390 --> 00:59:10,390
- The World Series?

1063
00:59:10,390 --> 00:59:13,250
We need to figure out
how to get to regionals.

1064
00:59:13,250 --> 00:59:14,230
Brighton's undefeated,

1065
00:59:14,230 --> 00:59:17,700
they've outscored the other
teams 75 to nine so far.

1066
00:59:17,700 --> 00:59:19,470
- Brighton sucked last year.

1067
00:59:19,470 --> 00:59:21,650
- Well, they don't suck now.

1068
00:59:21,650 --> 00:59:24,210
At least the Sox got a
hundred grand for Ruth.

1069
00:59:25,100 --> 00:59:26,550
They oughta send you flowers.

1070
00:59:34,810 --> 00:59:37,030
- So you guys ready for states?

1071
00:59:37,030 --> 00:59:39,210
- Yeah, they've never been there before.

1072
00:59:40,300 --> 00:59:41,290
- You'll be fine,

1073
00:59:41,290 --> 00:59:42,930
just play your hardest
and keep everyone focused.

1074
00:59:42,930 --> 00:59:46,860
- You sound like Dad. (Xavier chuckles)

1075
00:59:46,860 --> 00:59:49,200
Do you think he'll be okay?

1076
00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:51,600
- I think as long as
we're okay, he'll be okay,

1077
00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:52,650
you know what I mean?

1078
00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:58,390
Dad's always trying to act
like he wants us to act,

1079
00:59:58,390 --> 00:59:59,350
even when he was faking it.

1080
00:59:59,350 --> 01:00:02,050
I think he just needs to
feed off us for a little bit.

1081
01:00:03,490 --> 01:00:06,040
So let's light these
tournaments up, alright?

1082
01:00:06,040 --> 01:00:08,300
(Xavier chuckles)

1083
01:00:08,300 --> 01:00:10,970
(intense music)

1084
01:00:16,620 --> 01:00:18,060
- [Announcer] This afternoon's matchup

1085
01:00:18,060 --> 01:00:20,090
features two undefeated teams,

1086
01:00:20,090 --> 01:00:23,370
the Brighton All-Stars, who
seem to be scoring runs at will,

1087
01:00:23,370 --> 01:00:27,240
and Freeport, coming off a
big win over the Oakwood Bats,

1088
01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:30,580
sending them to the elimination bracket.

1089
01:00:43,260 --> 01:00:46,350
(indistinct chatter)

1090
01:00:52,430 --> 01:00:53,760
- [Umpire] Ball.

1091
01:01:03,940 --> 01:01:04,770
Walk.

1092
01:01:08,110 --> 01:01:09,300
(Lou sighs)

1093
01:01:09,300 --> 01:01:11,020
- Well, hopefully you'll
get more from the next game,

1094
01:01:11,020 --> 01:01:12,440
I'm sorry about that, Lou.

1095
01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:13,900
- Aw, come on, don't sweat it, kid.

1096
01:01:13,900 --> 01:01:16,070
If he's as good as you say he is,

1097
01:01:16,070 --> 01:01:17,890
I'd walk him every time too.

1098
01:01:17,890 --> 01:01:19,440
- You sticking around?

1099
01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:20,910
- Yeah, I'm gonna catch some
of the Babe Ruth tournaments.

1100
01:01:20,910 --> 01:01:22,610
There's a lot of talent out there.

1101
01:01:24,170 --> 01:01:26,270
Alright, uh, I'll call you later, alright?

1102
01:01:26,270 --> 01:01:27,270
- Yeah, sounds good.

1103
01:01:32,300 --> 01:01:34,180
- Ball, that's a walk.

1104
01:01:34,180 --> 01:01:37,520
(cheering and applause)

1105
01:01:42,010 --> 01:01:43,840
- How's the arm?

1106
01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:45,010
You did great.

1107
01:01:45,010 --> 01:01:46,620
Head out and take center.

1108
01:01:46,620 --> 01:01:48,160
- Coach.

1109
01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:50,020
- Come on, we gotta save Jared's arm.

1110
01:01:53,090 --> 01:01:53,920
Tommy!

1111
01:01:55,980 --> 01:01:56,980
- [Catcher] Why him?

1112
01:02:02,270 --> 01:02:03,970
- Alright, buddy, ready to have some fun?

1113
01:02:03,970 --> 01:02:04,800
- Yeah.

1114
01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:06,970
- Alright, just relax
and throw strikes, okay?

1115
01:02:06,970 --> 01:02:07,800
- Yeah.

1116
01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:09,390
- Alright, do your thing.

1117
01:02:09,390 --> 01:02:14,390
Let's go!
(cheering and applause)

1118
01:02:16,240 --> 01:02:17,490
Come on, Tommy!

1119
01:02:24,870 --> 01:02:25,700
(crowd gasps)

1120
01:02:25,700 --> 01:02:26,700
- Dead ball!

1121
01:02:29,790 --> 01:02:30,630
- Blue.

1122
01:02:35,740 --> 01:02:36,580
You nervous?

1123
01:02:36,580 --> 01:02:37,410
- A little bit.

1124
01:02:37,410 --> 01:02:39,590
- That's okay, you're overthrowing,

1125
01:02:39,590 --> 01:02:41,940
just take a little something
off it and throw strikes, okay?

1126
01:02:41,940 --> 01:02:42,770
- Mm-hmm.

1127
01:02:43,820 --> 01:02:45,910
- Say, guys, let's have some fun.

1128
01:02:45,910 --> 01:02:46,990
Just playing catch.

1129
01:02:46,990 --> 01:02:49,990
- It's okay, throw strikes, alright?

1130
01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:54,290
(cheering and applause)

1131
01:03:00,090 --> 01:03:03,420
(cheering and applause)

1132
01:03:06,870 --> 01:03:10,200
(cheering and applause)

1133
01:03:13,520 --> 01:03:16,850
(cheering and applause)

1134
01:03:39,070 --> 01:03:41,570
(tense music)

1135
01:03:49,470 --> 01:03:51,360
- This kid's 12?

1136
01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:52,610
- Just turned 13.

1137
01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:56,220
His dad was in the Dodgers'
bullpen for six years.

1138
01:03:57,140 --> 01:03:57,970
- Great.

1139
01:04:22,130 --> 01:04:22,960
- Strike!

1140
01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:27,130
- Okay, Cam, now you've seen one.

1141
01:04:27,130 --> 01:04:28,480
Give his next pitch a ride.

1142
01:04:36,490 --> 01:04:39,820
(cheering and applause)

1143
01:04:42,330 --> 01:04:43,710
That's alright, it's only one.

1144
01:04:43,710 --> 01:04:44,960
Come on, Ricky, let's go!

1145
01:04:57,370 --> 01:04:58,200
- Strike!

1146
01:05:04,670 --> 01:05:07,080
- Good cut, Ricky, timing now, let's go!

1147
01:05:12,290 --> 01:05:13,720
- Strike!

1148
01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:18,720
- That's alright, that wasn't
your pitch, get him next time.

1149
01:05:24,850 --> 01:05:25,680
- Strike!

1150
01:05:27,390 --> 01:05:28,220
- That's alright.

1151
01:05:28,220 --> 01:05:30,080
Come on, guys, we've still got this.

1152
01:05:35,300 --> 01:05:37,560
Hey, it's alright, come
on, guys, let's go!

1153
01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:41,610
We can do a lot with two, right, Coach?

1154
01:05:44,030 --> 01:05:45,110
Right, Coach?

1155
01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:52,460
- Kyle, go have a seat, this game's over.

1156
01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:56,410
- Let's go, Joey!

1157
01:05:57,640 --> 01:06:00,300
(intense music)

1158
01:06:11,220 --> 01:06:12,060
- [Rick] Way to go, Mason,

1159
01:06:12,060 --> 01:06:13,770
one more pitch, buddy, one more pitch!

1160
01:06:14,730 --> 01:06:16,650
- [Chad] Come on, Mase.

1161
01:06:21,350 --> 01:06:22,880
(cheering and applause)

1162
01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:23,710
- Up!

1163
01:06:26,120 --> 01:06:26,980
(cheering and applause)

1164
01:06:26,980 --> 01:06:28,000
- Yeah!

1165
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:28,830
Nice!

1166
01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:32,270
Way to go, buddy!

1167
01:06:32,270 --> 01:06:33,580
Good job!

1168
01:06:33,580 --> 01:06:35,280
Good job, boys!

1169
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:37,950
(intense music)

1170
01:06:41,560 --> 01:06:43,450
Alright, Bats on three, one, two, three,

1171
01:06:43,450 --> 01:06:44,630
- Bats!
- One, two, three,

1172
01:06:44,630 --> 01:06:45,770
- Bats!
- One, two, three,

1173
01:06:45,770 --> 01:06:46,610
- [All] Bats!

1174
01:06:46,610 --> 01:06:47,440
- Alright!

1175
01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:50,240
Great win out there
today, boys, great win.

1176
01:06:50,240 --> 01:06:52,840
Now listen, we're probably
gonna see these guys

1177
01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:54,240
again in the championship.

1178
01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:55,140
- [Troy] He's right.

1179
01:06:55,140 --> 01:06:57,160
- We got a little lucky.

1180
01:06:57,160 --> 01:07:00,100
They could afford to lose a
game, so they held their aces,

1181
01:07:00,100 --> 01:07:01,760
but they have to play them tomorrow,

1182
01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:03,580
which means that their arms

1183
01:07:03,580 --> 01:07:05,670
are gonna be tired when they play us.

1184
01:07:05,670 --> 01:07:07,470
We are winning the championship,

1185
01:07:07,470 --> 01:07:08,940
we are winning the regionals,

1186
01:07:08,940 --> 01:07:11,330
and we are going to
the World Series, yeah?

1187
01:07:11,330 --> 01:07:12,630
- Yeah!
- You got that?

1188
01:07:12,630 --> 01:07:13,800
- Yeah!
- You got that?

1189
01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:14,980
- Yeah!
- One, two, three,

1190
01:07:14,980 --> 01:07:15,820
- [All] Oakwood!

1191
01:07:15,820 --> 01:07:16,670
- One, two, three,

1192
01:07:16,670 --> 01:07:17,500
- Oakwood!
- One, two, three,

1193
01:07:17,500 --> 01:07:18,520
- [All] Oakwood!

1194
01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:19,350
- Yeah!

1195
01:07:19,350 --> 01:07:20,320
- Yeah!
- Woo!

1196
01:07:20,320 --> 01:07:22,590
(indistinct chatter)

1197
01:07:22,590 --> 01:07:25,920
(cheering and applause)

1198
01:07:29,850 --> 01:07:32,350
- Go on, go play center field.

1199
01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:38,240
Three pitches, get us out of this, okay?

1200
01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:39,470
You'll be good, alright?

1201
01:07:53,130 --> 01:07:55,510
- They can't walk you now, buddy!

1202
01:07:55,510 --> 01:07:56,760
They can't walk you now!

1203
01:07:57,740 --> 01:07:58,740
Wait for your pitch.

1204
01:08:09,260 --> 01:08:10,090
- Strike!

1205
01:08:13,270 --> 01:08:14,230
- Told you he throws heat.

1206
01:08:14,230 --> 01:08:15,060
- Mm-hmm.

1207
01:08:29,080 --> 01:08:30,580
- [Umpire] Strike!

1208
01:08:34,170 --> 01:08:37,090
- [Troy] That's okay, stay focused.

1209
01:08:45,870 --> 01:08:48,290
- This should be interesting.

1210
01:08:49,220 --> 01:08:51,880
(players cheer)

1211
01:08:54,240 --> 01:08:56,740
(tense music)

1212
01:09:00,870 --> 01:09:03,330
(cheering and applause)

1213
01:09:03,330 --> 01:09:04,640
- No, he didn't.

1214
01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:05,640
- Holy sh...

1215
01:09:09,360 --> 01:09:10,190
Shoes.

1216
01:09:15,850 --> 01:09:17,440
- What'd I tell ya?

1217
01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:28,720
(players celebrate)

1218
01:09:28,720 --> 01:09:31,390
(intense music)

1219
01:09:38,050 --> 01:09:39,090
- Xavier, you ready?

1220
01:09:39,950 --> 01:09:41,520
- Yeah, where are my slides?

1221
01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:43,000
- Right in front of you.

1222
01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:44,350
- Oh.

1223
01:09:44,350 --> 01:09:45,430
Good luck today, buddy.

1224
01:09:45,430 --> 01:09:46,260
- You too.

1225
01:09:46,260 --> 01:09:47,140
How many kids you gonna strike out?

1226
01:09:47,140 --> 01:09:47,970
- All of them.

1227
01:09:47,970 --> 01:09:49,490
You're gonna bring that
trophy home, right?

1228
01:09:49,490 --> 01:09:50,330
- Yeah.

1229
01:09:50,330 --> 01:09:51,190
- Good luck, X.

1230
01:09:51,190 --> 01:09:52,020
- Thanks, Dad.

1231
01:09:52,020 --> 01:09:53,390
- Throw hard, focus.

1232
01:09:53,390 --> 01:09:54,880
- Hey, Kyle, have fun out there today,

1233
01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:56,280
I'll see you before warmups.

1234
01:10:01,580 --> 01:10:03,870
- Remember when you told me
you were gonna win states?

1235
01:10:03,870 --> 01:10:05,070
- Yeah.

1236
01:10:05,070 --> 01:10:08,010
- Well, you didn't come this
far to only come this far,

1237
01:10:08,010 --> 01:10:08,840
win it.

1238
01:10:11,070 --> 01:10:12,070
- Thank you so much.

1239
01:10:17,210 --> 01:10:18,250
- You got everything?

1240
01:10:18,250 --> 01:10:19,080
- Yep.

1241
01:10:19,080 --> 01:10:19,920
- Batting gloves?

1242
01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:20,750
- Yep.

1243
01:10:20,750 --> 01:10:21,580
- Alright, you excited?

1244
01:10:21,580 --> 01:10:22,820
- Yeah, kinda nervous.

1245
01:10:23,780 --> 01:10:24,610
- Sit down.

1246
01:10:26,430 --> 01:10:27,780
(soft music)

1247
01:10:27,780 --> 01:10:30,070
So listen, those nerves,

1248
01:10:30,070 --> 01:10:32,970
they'll go away when you start
warming up, you'll be fine.

1249
01:10:34,190 --> 01:10:35,720
But you have to leave
it all out there today,

1250
01:10:35,720 --> 01:10:38,090
this is everything you've
been working towards.

1251
01:10:38,090 --> 01:10:38,920
Alright?

1252
01:10:38,920 --> 01:10:39,750
Win or lose,

1253
01:10:39,750 --> 01:10:42,140
you have to know that you
did everything you could.

1254
01:10:43,620 --> 01:10:45,670
Alright, so they're a good team,

1255
01:10:45,670 --> 01:10:46,500
they've been here before,

1256
01:10:46,500 --> 01:10:47,860
and you're probably not
gonna get much to hit,

1257
01:10:47,860 --> 01:10:50,590
so be patient, be smart, okay?

1258
01:10:50,590 --> 01:10:51,430
- Okay.

1259
01:10:53,890 --> 01:10:54,990
- I'm so proud of you.

1260
01:10:58,150 --> 01:10:59,920
You've amazed me, you really have.

1261
01:11:02,160 --> 01:11:03,810
Now let's finish this, huh?

1262
01:11:05,830 --> 01:11:08,490
(intense music)

1263
01:11:23,090 --> 01:11:24,530
- [Announcer] Ladies and gentlemen,

1264
01:11:24,530 --> 01:11:27,630
welcome to the 12-year-old
Connecticut State Championship

1265
01:11:27,630 --> 01:11:30,100
between Brighton and Oakwood.

1266
01:11:30,100 --> 01:11:32,730
Both teams have four wins and one loss

1267
01:11:32,730 --> 01:11:35,680
entering this winner-take-all game.

1268
01:11:35,680 --> 01:11:37,600
Good luck to all of our all-stars.

1269
01:11:40,970 --> 01:11:42,940
- Coaches, plate conference, please.

1270
01:11:47,410 --> 01:11:48,250
How are you doing, guys?

1271
01:11:48,250 --> 01:11:49,080
- Good, thanks.

1272
01:11:49,080 --> 01:11:51,890
- Okay, the field is totally
enclosed all the way around,

1273
01:11:51,890 --> 01:11:54,330
so that means everything is in play.

1274
01:11:54,330 --> 01:11:56,910
Oakwood, you're the defending champion,

1275
01:11:56,910 --> 01:11:59,490
so therefore you're the home team.

1276
01:11:59,490 --> 01:12:00,930
Are there any questions?

1277
01:12:00,930 --> 01:12:01,950
- No, sir.

1278
01:12:01,950 --> 01:12:03,620
- Let's play ball.

1279
01:12:03,620 --> 01:12:04,670
- [John] Good luck, Coach.

1280
01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:07,520
Bring it in, boys.

1281
01:12:08,690 --> 01:12:09,590
Come on, let's go.

1282
01:12:12,150 --> 01:12:13,710
- Fellas, one, two, three,

1283
01:12:13,710 --> 01:12:14,550
- [All] Oakwood!

1284
01:12:14,550 --> 01:12:16,150
- Let's go, hit the field!

1285
01:12:19,810 --> 01:12:20,640
Mason...

1286
01:12:27,150 --> 01:12:29,650

1287
01:12:31,170 --> 01:12:35,540
- [Announcer] Now batting,

1289
01:12:46,020 --> 01:12:46,990
(audience gasps)

1290
01:12:46,990 --> 01:12:48,380
- [Players] Oh!

1291
01:12:48,380 --> 01:12:49,210

1292
01:12:53,330 --> 01:12:57,250

back at him, Justin.

1298

(cheering and applause)

1299
01:13:53,980 --> 01:13:57,020
- [Announcer] Now batting,
number 12, Kyle Cooke.

1300
01:13:57,020 --> 01:13:59,250
Currently leads in every batting category

1301
01:13:59,250 --> 01:14:01,350
and has set tournament records
for home runs and RBIs.

1302
01:14:01,350 --> 01:14:03,520
- Hey, fellas, back it up.

1303
01:14:04,590 --> 01:14:05,510
Back it up.

1304
01:14:11,880 --> 01:14:14,380
(tense music)

1305
01:14:27,760 --> 01:14:29,840
(audience groans and boos)

1306
01:14:29,840 --> 01:14:31,010
- Come on now.

1307
01:14:32,270 --> 01:14:34,760
- [John] Hang in there, hang in there.

1308
01:14:34,760 --> 01:14:35,590
That's it.

1309
01:14:54,050 --> 01:14:54,880
(upbeat music)

1310
01:14:54,880 --> 01:14:55,720
- No, bunt!

1311
01:14:55,720 --> 01:14:56,550
- Bunt, bunt, bunt, bunt, bunt!

1312
01:14:56,550 --> 01:14:57,810
- Bunt!

1313
01:14:57,810 --> 01:14:58,640
Two!

1314
01:15:04,630 --> 01:15:07,130
- Who's covering third?

1315
01:15:07,130 --> 01:15:11,120
(cheering and applause)

1316
01:15:11,120 --> 01:15:14,120

1370
01:18:36,630 --> 01:18:38,050
- Where'd that get you?
- Where'd it hit you?

1371
01:18:38,050 --> 01:18:39,030
- My knee.

1372
01:18:39,030 --> 01:18:40,320

- Can you stand?

1373
01:18:41,500 --> 01:18:42,920
- One, two, three, yeah.

1374
01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:45,050
You did great.

1375
01:18:45,050 --> 01:18:46,730
- How many did Ricky throw yesterday?

1376
01:18:46,730 --> 01:18:48,500

1377

1378

- Tommy!

1380
01:18:55,250 --> 01:18:56,080
- Coach.

1381
01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:00,590
Can I pitch?

1382
01:19:02,580 --> 01:19:03,440
- I thought you'd never ask, buddy.

1383
01:19:03,440 --> 01:19:05,420
I thought you'd never ask.

1384
01:19:05,420 --> 01:19:06,540
Head back on out.

1385

Brandon!

01:19:08,040 --> 01:19:08,920
Take short!

1387
01:19:09,810 --> 01:19:11,530
- Have you seen him throw?

1388
01:19:11,530 --> 01:19:13,330
- I heard he's never pitched before.

1389
01:19:14,600 --> 01:19:15,430
- Really?

1390
01:19:18,460 --> 01:19:19,290
- Kyle, don't worry,

1391
01:19:19,290 --> 01:19:21,850
just stare at the glove

1392
01:19:21,850 --> 01:19:23,720
and just throw like you're
playing catch, alright?

1393
01:19:23,720 --> 01:19:25,000
And you don't have to overthrow

1394
01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:26,130
because you've got a strong arm,

1395
01:19:26,130 --> 01:19:27,330
and don't worry about hitting anybody--

1396
01:19:27,330 --> 01:19:31,050
- Coach, go have a seat, this game's over.

1402
01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:52,190
Good pitch.

1403
01:19:52,190 --> 01:19:53,190
- Bring it in, guys.

1404
01:19:55,900 --> 01:19:58,890
Joey, the first one's coming to you, okay?

1405
01:19:58,890 --> 01:20:01,690
- This kid's never been on a mound before,

1406
01:20:01,690 --> 01:20:03,040
I want you stealing on the first pitch.

1407
01:20:03,040 --> 01:20:04,860
He won't even look you back.

1408
01:20:04,860 --> 01:20:06,110

1409

(cheering and applause)

1410
01:20:19,060 --> 01:20:20,150
Keep running.

1411
01:20:23,430 --> 01:20:24,350
- He's out!

1412
01:20:28,910 --> 01:20:32,080
- [Catcher] One down, play's to first.

1413
01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:43,970
(indistinct chatter)

1414
01:20:43,970 --> 01:20:45,330
- Come on now, Kyle,
show 'em what you got.

1415
01:20:45,330 --> 01:20:46,850
- Sit 'em down!

(upbeat music)

1422
01:21:13,830 --> 01:21:15,270
- Throw that ball again, kid!

1423
01:21:15,270 --> 01:21:16,970
Keep it up!

1424
01:21:16,970 --> 01:21:20,820
- Go get the gun.

1425
01:21:20,820 --> 01:21:21,650
Go get the gun.

1426
01:21:21,650 --> 01:21:22,740

- Was that a knuckle curve?

1431
01:21:59,470 --> 01:22:01,540
- [Catcher] That's two.

1432
01:22:01,540 --> 01:22:05,040
- Did that kid just throw a knuckle curve?

1433
01:22:05,910 --> 01:22:09,910
- [Announcer] Now batting,
number 53, AJ Garcia.

(Ted chuckles)

1437
01:22:48,010 --> 01:22:49,740
- What's he doing?

1438
01:22:49,740 --> 01:22:52,990
- He's about to teach a bully a lesson.

1439

Hey.

1440

- Yeah.

1442
01:22:59,460 --> 01:23:01,270
How'd it go?

1443
01:23:01,270 --> 01:23:02,990
- I let up one.

1444
01:23:02,990 --> 01:23:04,510
- Yeah.

1445
01:23:04,510 --> 01:23:06,010
- What's he doing?

1446
01:23:10,260 --> 01:23:12,590

is gonna stay in the windup

1457
01:24:02,820 --> 01:24:04,320
- Well, it was 81.

1458
01:24:05,260 --> 01:24:06,090

1459
01:24:06,090 --> 01:24:09,890
get around early and drive
that fastball, come on!

1460
01:24:09,890 --> 01:24:11,860
- That wasn't my fastball.

1461

- Hey, this kid's superhuman.

1465
01:24:39,230 --> 01:24:42,900
A 12-year-old arm cannot throw that hard.

1466
01:24:42,900 --> 01:24:43,730
- Hey, Coach,

1467
01:24:44,900 --> 01:24:47,440
how'd you like if he threw
that at your son's head?

(tense music)

1469
01:24:58,820 --> 01:25:00,980

1480
01:25:33,580 --> 01:25:36,840
our Connecticut state champions.

1481
01:25:36,840 --> 01:25:40,160
The final score, Brighton
two, Oakwood one.

1482
01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:43,880
Good luck at regionals,
boys, make us proud.

1483
01:25:43,880 --> 01:25:48,880
(players celebrate)
(cheering and applause)

1484
01:26:14,250 --> 01:26:15,080
- Hey, Ted,

1485
01:26:17,990 --> 01:26:19,020
you got a second?

1486
01:26:25,860 --> 01:26:26,900
- Hey, Chad.

1487
01:26:26,900 --> 01:26:28,070
- Hey.

1488
01:26:28,070 --> 01:26:28,900
Uh...

1489
01:26:30,660 --> 01:26:31,530
I was...

1490
01:26:33,240 --> 01:26:36,230
I was wrong not to give
Kyle a shot last year,

1491
01:26:36,230 --> 01:26:38,010
him and a lotta other kids.

1492
01:26:39,460 --> 01:26:40,290
(soft music)

1493
01:26:40,290 --> 01:26:41,520
I'm really sorry about that.

1494
01:26:42,990 --> 01:26:43,820
Your son,

1495
01:26:45,170 --> 01:26:48,470
he's the greatest baseball
player I've ever seen, ever.

1496
01:26:51,600 --> 01:26:52,560
- Listen, I...

1497
01:26:54,290 --> 01:26:55,410
I'm sorry too.

1498
01:26:55,410 --> 01:26:57,950
- No. (chuckles)
- I was, you know...

1499
01:26:57,950 --> 01:27:00,010
Well, in a way, I should be thanking you.

1500
01:27:01,530 --> 01:27:02,830
I don't think Kyle woulda worked that hard

1501
01:27:02,830 --> 01:27:03,930
if he hadn't been cut.

1502
01:27:05,750 --> 01:27:07,150
- Funny how things work out.

1503
01:27:13,360 --> 01:27:14,580
- [Lou] Good game, Coach.

1504
01:27:14,580 --> 01:27:15,410
- Thanks.

1505
01:27:17,300 --> 01:27:19,990
- Excuse me, Mr. Cooke, Mrs. Cooke,

1506
01:27:22,970 --> 01:27:23,850
I'm Lou Grey,

1507
01:27:23,850 --> 01:27:24,750
I head up scouting

1508
01:27:24,750 --> 01:27:27,220
for Stanford University's
baseball program.

1509
01:27:27,220 --> 01:27:30,710
I'd like to talk to you about
your son if you have a moment.

1510
01:27:30,710 --> 01:27:31,540
(Ted chuckles)

1511
01:27:31,540 --> 01:27:33,740
- Isn't that some sort of,
uh, recruiting violation?

1512
01:27:33,740 --> 01:27:36,430
I mean, Kyle's only
going into eighth grade.

1513
01:27:36,430 --> 01:27:38,130
- (chuckles) Oh, no, no, no,

1514
01:27:38,130 --> 01:27:40,180
I don't think Kyle's right for Stanford.

1515
01:27:40,180 --> 01:27:41,660
This is about Xavier.

1516
01:27:41,660 --> 01:27:43,670
Look, I caught a couple
of his games this week,

1517
01:27:43,670 --> 01:27:45,290
and I think with a little
work on his breaking ball,

1518
01:27:45,290 --> 01:27:47,280
and if his grades are good,

1519
01:27:47,280 --> 01:27:48,120
I think we'd be interested

1520
01:27:48,120 --> 01:27:50,480
in offering him a full scholarship.

1521
01:27:50,480 --> 01:27:51,850
So you know,

1522
01:27:51,850 --> 01:27:54,890
that's about a $300,000 investment
on our part in your son.

1523
01:27:59,290 --> 01:28:00,870
Uh, alright, alright, look, (Ted chuckles)

1524
01:28:00,870 --> 01:28:03,690
I realize this is coming
out of, well, left field.

1525
01:28:05,190 --> 01:28:06,360
Here's my card,

1526
01:28:06,360 --> 01:28:07,350
why don't you guys talk about it

1527
01:28:07,350 --> 01:28:08,330
and give me a call in a day or two

1528
01:28:08,330 --> 01:28:10,740
and maybe we can discuss
this further, alright?

1529
01:28:10,740 --> 01:28:11,570
Pleasure meeting you.

1530
01:28:11,570 --> 01:28:12,750
- Pleasure to meet you.

1531
01:28:12,750 --> 01:28:14,330
- Thank you.
- Thank you.

1532
01:28:14,330 --> 01:28:16,090
Have a good day.

1533
01:28:16,090 --> 01:28:18,190
- Uh, Mr. Grey,

1534
01:28:18,190 --> 01:28:20,040
uh, just curious,

1535
01:28:21,230 --> 01:28:23,670
why don't you think
Stanford's right for Kyle?

1536
01:28:23,670 --> 01:28:25,580
(Lou chuckles)

1537
01:28:25,580 --> 01:28:28,160
- Look, um, as a recruiting coach,

1538
01:28:28,160 --> 01:28:29,990
I travel around the world all year long

1539
01:28:29,990 --> 01:28:32,510
looking at young ballplayers, Mr. Cooke,

1540
01:28:32,510 --> 01:28:34,770
there's no question in my mind
that in a couple of years,

1541
01:28:34,770 --> 01:28:37,720
Kyle will be the number one
prospect on this entire planet.

1542
01:28:38,570 --> 01:28:40,370
In fact, the day he graduates high school,

1543
01:28:40,370 --> 01:28:42,400
some major league organization
will be offering you

1544
01:28:42,400 --> 01:28:45,130
a hundred-million-dollar contract.

1545
01:28:45,130 --> 01:28:47,030
Even Stanford can't compete with that.

1546
01:28:48,100 --> 01:28:50,370
Look, um, I have to say this,

1547
01:28:50,370 --> 01:28:51,200
obviously,

1548
01:28:51,200 --> 01:28:53,160
you got a couple of great
ballplayers in your boys,

1549
01:28:54,110 --> 01:28:54,940
from what I've seen,

1550
01:28:54,940 --> 01:28:57,380
their interaction with
their coaches, teammates,

1551
01:28:58,290 --> 01:29:00,450
you two have raised two fine young men.

1552
01:29:01,300 --> 01:29:02,300
You should be proud.

1553
01:29:03,450 --> 01:29:05,050
Well, look, I shouldn't
tie you up any longer.

1554
01:29:05,050 --> 01:29:06,440
It's a pleasure meeting you.

1555
01:29:06,440 --> 01:29:08,940
I look forward to talking some more.

1556
01:29:08,940 --> 01:29:10,520
Have a great evening.

1557
01:29:10,520 --> 01:29:12,190
Be well, my friends.

1558
01:29:14,200 --> 01:29:16,620
(soft music)

1559
01:30:06,280 --> 01:30:08,860
(upbeat music)

1560
01:30:50,980 --> 01:30:53,560
(upbeat music)
