Cheers. Carla, it's your little girl.

What?

The baby?
Well, bring her to the phone.

The baby is crying, and they
can't make her stop. I'll try a lullaby.

God couldn't be everywhere.
That's why he created mothers.

- And postal carriers.
- You got her?

Okay, now put her ear to the phone.

Sweetie. Sweetie.

Okay. Oh, good girl.
Good girl, okay. Now, listen to Mama.

Too ra loo ra loo ra

Too ra loo ra li

Too ra loo ra loo ra

- Hush, now don't you cry
- Hush, now don't you cry

Too ra loo ra loo ra

Too ra loo ra li

Too ra loo ra loo ra

That's an Irish lullaby

- She's asleep.
- Yeah!

Thanks, everybody. Thanks a lot.

Hey, everybody.
Drinks are on me. I got my raise.

Hey, congratulations, Cliff.

- Thank you. How are you, Normie?
- Congratulations, Cliff.

Thank you.

Oh, Norm.

Normie, Normie, Normie.

You know, I know you're
a proud guy, Norm,

but you've been out of work
a long time.

And I feel I've got to at least try
to share my good fortune with you,

so I know what your answer
is gonna be to this,

but would you please allow me
to loan you $500?

Sure.

- Beg your pardon?
- Sure. I'd love it.

How soon can I get it?

You know, Norm, my greatest fear
was that you'd say no

because you'd be afraid
it'd hurt our relationship.

No, no. Can I get it in cash?

Sure, yeah, sure. I guess
our friendship's pretty solid, huh?

Yeah, I mean,
we're the kind of guys

who knows what the other guy's gonna
say before he even says it, huh?

Yeah, I was wrong this time.

- Hey, Sam.
- Hey, Mort. How you doing?

- What will you have?
- Let me have a draft.

Sam, you gotta help me.
I got big trouble.

Really? What's the problem?

The coach of my kid's
Youth League Baseball team just quit,

and I figure
you're a natural for the job.

Boy, I'd love to, Mort,
but I don't have any time around here.

I spend half my life
trying to keep this bar on its feet

and the other half
trying to keep Diane off hers.

Well, I gotta find somebody.
I mean, this is a real good team, Sam.

We got a real chance
of winning the pennant here.

Wait a second. Does anyone
wanna manage the team here?

Sam, wanna hear a crazy idea?

What about me?

Well, Coach, that's not a crazy idea.
That's a great idea.

Well, I knew
it was either one or the other.

Just give me a second here.
Coach, this is perfect for you.

I mean, you got some extra time
on your hands.

You know the game.
It'd be good for you.

Come on, Sam.
You know I never managed.

The highest I ever got
was third-base coach.

- Mort?
- Yeah.

Hey, don't worry about it.
You're gonna be great.

- Sam, can I talk to you about this?
- No, no, not right now. Not right now.

- Sam, you think I can handle it?
- Of course you can.

- Come on, you're not kidding?
- I'm not kidding.

- Mort, you got yourself a manager.
- Hey, great, Coach.

I'll introduce you to the kids.
They're over at the park.

God, things are going so fast. Sam,
I'll be back before you know I'm gone.

I'll probably be back
before I know I'm gone.

Sam.

I just got a real strong feeling.

Carla, watch the bar.

What?

I mean about this idea
that Coach will manage the team.

I sense disaster.

Oh, come on,
what are you talking about?

I mean, the guy's home life is a can
of Spaghetti O's and reruns of Baretta.

This will be good for him. I mean,
every guy needs a hobby, right?

I wish I had time for one.

Norm,

you've got time
to make your own coal.

Sam, this is serious.

Everybody knows that there can be
a lot of pressure in children's baseball.

The parents take it very seriously.

Well, I'm afraid that they'll take
somebody as gentle and guileless

as the Coach and eat him alive.

You're kidding me.
He's been in the big leagues.

This is not gonna be pressure
for him.

No, no, wait a minute.
He was working for somebody else.

He was never the boss.

I'm telling you, I can't get rid
of this feeling. Something's wrong.

Hey, hey, Diane, you can have
your feelings, but this is guy stuff.

I mean, there's a male bond
that happens between men

that women just don't understand.

Hey, sweetheart, sweetheart,
look, this is part of me that is private.

You're just gonna have to
stay away from it.

So it's hands-off, no trespassing,
keep out, end of discussion. Really.

Very well.

And from now on, there's a part of me
that's hands-off to you.

Just my luck,
it'll be one of the parts I care about.

- Sam, can I ask you a question?
- Shoot.

Where do you stand
on breast-feeding?

As I recall, I liked it.

Oh, no, I mean me
with my baby in here.

Oh, Carla, I guess it's cheaper
than a piano player.

Look, Sammy, you know,

I'm just tired of having to run home
to feed her all the time during my shift.

I should have done like I did
with all my other kids.

You mean you didn't breast-feed
the other four?

No, they went right to raw meat.

- Hey, everybody.
- Hey, Cliff.

- Thank you, Norm.
- Say, remember that--?

Remember that money
you were gonna lend me?

Oh, of course, Norm.
Look, you're a friend of mine,

you're in need,
and I'm here to help you.

- I've got your money.
- Great.

Look, is a handshake
good enough for you?

- Sure.
- Not for me.

- A loan application?
- That's right.

Hey, it's a loan we're talking
about here, not a handout.

I don't wanna go through
this kind of humiliation, all right?

I mean, I wouldn't be asking for this
unless I really needed it.

All right, Norm. I got you.
Just kidding around here.

Thank you. This is gonna go
a long way to pay a lot of bills.

You know, I really should think
of something nice for Vera too.

Hey, Norm, how about
a candlelit dinner for two?

Great. Come on.
We'll talk about Vera later.

Ladies and gentlemen,
introducing the Titans.

Come on, move it.

Let's go.

That's a well-drilled team, Coach.

Thank you, Sam.

- Yeah, and look at you, Coach.
- Oh, thank you, Diane.

Coach, how about doing
the honors here?

Oh, yeah, sure, Sam.
Fellas, this is Sam "Mayday" Malone.

Probably the greatest relief pitcher
the game of baseball ever knew.

Then he hit the bottle, and he
was through in less than a year.

Remember that.

Hi.

And this is Diane. She's smart.

Let me introduce
my boys to you, Sam.

This is Peewee, Moose,
Juice, Goose, the Tank,

the Chancellor, the Bull,
the Cannonball Express,

Specs and Dynamic Duo.

Well, so, what have you guys
been working on so far, Coach?

- Nicknames.
- Yeah.

But the party's over now, Sam,
and we start busting some butts.

I'll have these guys in shape
within the week.

Well, there you go.

Well, isn't that always
the way with children?

The delightful melding
of their innocence with your wisdom.

Yes, we teach them, but they leave
their impression on us--

Deviate.

Forget it, Diane. I can handle this.
I got a way of communicating with kids.

All right, everybody file out.
Except you, Specs.

- Let's go. Move it. Move it.
- See?

- Come on, guys.
- Okay, okay.

Maybe this thing will be
a good experience for him, huh?

Yeah, he's standing a little taller,
has a light in his eye.

He's like a whole new person.

Specs, you get only one chance
to make a mistake on this team.

Go home and tell your mother
you're a flop.

A whole new person
I dislike intensely.

Hey, Coach, Coach. Hey.

You gonna kick him off the team
for that one little incident?

No, Sam, that's not the only reason.
He's leading the league in errors.

The only thing he's had his hands on
all week is Diane's keister.

Who the hell
are you guys talking to?

We've been talking stupid to a duck.

Well, we kept it quiet.

She's hungry.

Okay.

- Well, here's dinner.
- Hey!

Hold it, please.

Oh, Carla, come on.
It makes us a little uncomfortable.

- Okay, okay, I'll go in Sam's office.
- Thank you.

Whatever happened to modesty?

Really, who would wanna look
at something like that?

- Have you guys seen Miss June?
- Who?

Hey, what do we got here?

Oh, dear, Norm's in season again.

Coach is a little late
this evening, isn't he?

Yeah, the game must have gone
into extra innings.

How are those Titans doing?

They have not lost a game
since Coach took over.

Coach has lost his sweet disposition.
He's turned into a tyrant.

Yeah, but he's winning, Diane,

and winning is
the most important thing here.

Well, I don't think winning
is the most important thing here.

Well, good, then you won't mind
losing this argument.

- Over my dead body.
- Hey, don't bring last night into this.

That's exactly what it was.
Your last night.

Oh, now, come on.

Come on. I was just kidding.
I was just kidding.

Come on, don't be mad.
Don't be mad.

Look, what are we arguing about?

I mean, Coach is
just being dedicated, that's all.

Yeah, you know, I never thought
I'd say this about another man,

but Coach may have the attributes
to be a good postal carrier.

Dedication, intensity
and single-mindedness.

Yeah, the inability
to recognize the word "fragile."

Yeah.

I still say this was
a mistake for Coach to--

Don't touch me.

It's not a mistake. He's got a hobby,
that's all. I mean, he's having fun.

- Fun.
- I can stand physical errors,

but I can't stand mental errors.

After this one,
boy, somebody's gonna have to go.

- What happened, Coach, you lost?
- No, we won, but by only one run.

What's the point in winning
if you can't humiliate the other team?

You gotta intimidate them, Carla.

Crush them. Crush them.
Crush them, Carla. Crush them.

Hey, now, there's a fun guy.

Well, he's not having the kind of fun
you're talking about,

laughing and giggling
and running barefoot through fields.

That's woman's fun.

Woman's fun?

Yeah. Yeah, Coach
is having men fun.

I mean, he's active, he's working hard,
he's getting the job done.

Do you believe
anything you're saying?

No, I'm lying,
but that's another men fun thing to do.

- I am going to go talk to the Coach.
- No, no, come on.

- Just leave him alone. Leave him.
- Sam, he's obsessing.

I know all the signs.

I had a small obsession myself
until I got some help.

- You did?
- Yes.

I was obsessive-compulsive
about neatness.

I demanded that everything be
in its proper place.

But now look at the--

Look at the laissez-faire attitude
I have about my apron.

Now, in the old days,
I would have insisted

that it be pencil, pen,
pencil, pen, pad.

Well, now it doesn't matter if it's

pen, pencil, pen, pencil, pad.

Or pencil, pencil, pen, pen, pad.

Or even pencil, pen, pad, pencil, pen.

There's one thing I cannot have
and that's this:

Pad, pen, pen, pencil, pencil.

That's just irritating me.

Sam, we got any more
of those antacid tablets?

Coach, you've been throwing down
a lot of those recently.

Yeah, and a hell of a lot of good
they've been doing me.

Hey, Coach. Hey, Coach, hey,
it's kind of busy out here.

- Are you working tonight?
- Not a chance, Sam.

- We play our division rivals tomorrow.
- Hey, wait. Wait a second.

You got a job here. I mean,
if you're not gonna do your work,

I'm gonna have to replace you
or something.

Listen, Sam, do what you have to do,
but stay out of my office.

- Maybe we both ought to go in.
- Just let me do the talking.

- Oh, you won't even know I'm there.
- Much like last night.

No, no, I'll save my left-hander
for Saturday.

What am I thinking about?
I don't have a left-hander.

Coach.

Those boys are children.

And childhood is supposed to be
a time when you're free to play a game

just for the fun of it.

- You know?
- Fun.

That's right.

Fun. That's it exactly.

Fun.

That's why they're making all those
mistakes. They're not having any fun.

Well, they're gonna learn
how to have fun,

or they're not gonna play
an inning on my team.

Coach, Coach, Coach.

Sit down. Sit down right now.

Take a deep breath here.

Now, don't you think that you're--?

Coach, let it out.

Don't you think
that you're overdoing this a little bit?

Sam, come on, you know
what it takes to win ball games.

Coach. Coach, you're doing this

because you think you
have to make up for the fact

that you never made it in the big
leagues. But you don't have to do that.

I mean, you were
a damn good coach.

- I was?
- You bet.

And it wasn't because you were tough.
It was because you cared.

I mean, my God, how many times
did you walk me up and down

the locker room before games,
pouring coffee down my throat?

No one else would have bothered
to do that.

You're right, Sam.
I was a lovely man.

But it's not enough, Sam.

Look, I'm a contender
for the championship, Sam.

Look, when I go out there, all those
parents, Sam, they cheer for me.

- They cheer me on.
- Really?

Now, after all we've been through,
you're asking me to give all that up?

- Well, I--
- Coach, tell us this.

Sure, you walk out there,
and you hear the cheers.

But what is it costing you, Coach?

Well, let's see,
I had to buy a jock strap...

Hey, how's my baby?

- I'm fine, honey, but I'm a little busy.
- Carla, come on in.

- I'm just gonna check her out.
- Okay.

Coach.

You do what you want
with your team.

- Thank you, Sam.
- Where are you going?

- Oh, please, leave me alone.
- Sam.

Oh, there, there, Lucia.

- Now, doesn't that feel better?
- I wish I could do that.

There, there, Coach.

- Thanks, Carla.
- My pleasure.

Sam?

You're not going to accept that?

Look--

What is the problem
you're trying to solve here?

I mean, the Coach is happy,
the families are happy,

the kids are happy--

Here, here. Here are Coach's
happy little players right now. Hey.

Are you on the sauce again?

We're miserable.

Yeah, we came to quit.
We can't stand it anymore.

Yeah, and the pressure's
getting to us.

Yeah.

All right. Maybe you--

Maybe you guys ought to tell
the Coach to his face.

Yeah, we'd like to do
something else to his face.

- Yeah.
- What are you guys doing here?

They came by to quit.

Well, forget it, Diane.
Nobody's quitting.

Well, I am. I can't take it anymore.

You're too hard on me.
I can't sleep. My pets hate me.

I'm starting to smoke again.

I have had enough, and I'm through.

- Me too.
- Yeah.

- So you're gonna quit, huh?
- Yeah.

That's what I got on my hands,
a bunch of quitters, huh?

- Yeah.
- Well, go ahead and quit.

I can go it alone. Who needs you?
Go on. Get out of here. Quit.

- Thank you.
- Quit.

- Nice guy.
- Get back here!

Line up against that bar, all of you.

Hut.

Now, I got a little story for you.

And I hope it just sticks with you
for the rest of your life.

Sam, what's a good story?

I don't know.

What's a good story?

Well, Coach, why don't you tell them
a story about a real mean guy?

- Mean guy?
- Yeah.

Hey, the one you used to tell me,
the Pledge of Allegiance.

Oh, him.

Listen, when I was a kid in school,
just about your age,

I had this teacher, a real mean guy,
a guy named Mr. Spires.

He always wanted me to learn
the Pledge of Allegiance.

And one day in assembly hall he had
me say it in front of the whole school.

I had stayed up the whole night before
trying to learn it.

But when I got up on that stage,
I drew a complete blank. I was lost.

And this Mr. Spires guy says:

"Nobody in this auditorium is gonna
leave until Pantusso remembers."

I stood there,
and it seemed like forever,

with everybody laughing at me.

It was probably
the worst day of my life.

And the point, Coach, is that you finally
did learn the Pledge of Allegiance?

No, Sam, I never learned it.

Yeah, but you respected Mr. Spires
for trying to help you.

No, I hated his guts, Sam.

But looking back on it now,
you respect him for it.

No, no, he died,
and I was glad he died.

Thank you, Coach, I'm sure
the guys enjoyed that inspiring story.

I guess I must have said
the wrong story, huh?

- Well, I don't know--
- No, Coach, you told the right story.

Well, why did I say it?

Because you don't want
these guys to leave here

hating you like you hated Mr. Spires.

Holy mackerel.

So that's what you had
on your minds, huh?

Well, listen to me.

Nobody but nobody's
gonna turn me into a Mr. Spires.

You understand?

And, Coach, there's gonna be
some changes around here.

Yeah, you bet your boots
there's gonna be some changes.

From now on there will be no
two-a-day practices, you understand?

You're lucky
if you're gonna get two a week.

And any game we play,
everybody plays,

even the lousy ones,
like you, Peewee.

You got it? And if we win, we win.
And if we lose, well, tough noogies.

Shut up.

Carla, give these guys sodas
till they drop.

And I'm buying it.

Shut up. Shut up.
Turn around and have your sodas.

Diane,

if we lose tomorrow, it's your butt.

You've made me so happy.

- We finally got our Coach back.
- Yeah.

Yeah, things are gonna be
even better than they were before.

Oh, there's beauty in art.
There's beauty in nature.

I think that applies
to human nature too.

Things are allowed
to take their own course.

We have to be tolerant of each other.
We have to be open--

Your pad's upside down.
