- - Ball four.

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

- 00:54:36,930 --> 00:54:39,100
- Okay, fellas, bring it in.

- Reg, lay off the high ones!
- 908
- 00:54:51,870 --> 00:54:54,110
- How many times I have to tell ya? Come on!

- 00:55:19,550 --> 00:55:21,030
- Yeah!
- 910
- 00:55:21,030 --> 00:55:21,870
- Woo!
- 911
- 00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:27,780
- That was a little high, but
- I'll forgive ya this time.
- 912
- 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:44,040
- - Let's go, Alex,
- this kid can't hit you,
- 913
- 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:45,190
- blow it past him now.
- 914
- 00:55:49,540 --> 00:55:50,390
- - Strike.
- 915
- 00:55:50,390 --> 00:55:52,200
- - He's a looker, he's not gonna swing.
- 916
- 00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:53,710
- Two more, sit him down now.
- 917
- 00:56:42,260 --> 00:56:43,570
- - Alright, listen up.
- 918
- 00:56:43,570 --> 00:56:46,950
- Hey, pipe down, come on
- now, this is important.
- 919
- 00:56:46,950 --> 00:56:48,160
- We're up 13 now,
- 920
- 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:49,930
- so we get the next three outs
- 921
- 00:56:49,930 --> 00:56:51,720
- and we end this game early, alright?
- 922
- 00:56:51,720 --> 00:56:53,510
- Max, you take third base,
- 923
- 00:56:53,510 --> 00:56:55,600
- Mason, you're pitching, alright?
- 924
- 00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:57,730
- You close this one out
- for us, alright, buddy.
- 925
- 00:56:57,730 --> 00:56:59,820
- Bring it in, Oakwood on three, alright?

- 00:57:18,290 --> 00:57:19,120
- Two hands.

- - Yeah!
- 933
- 00:57:24,350 --> 00:57:27,620
- Good catch, Aiden, good catch!

- Alright, boys, line 'er up.
- 935
- 00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:31,860
- Great job out there today, boys.
- 936
- 00:57:31,860 --> 00:57:33,580
- Great hitting all the
- way through the lineup.
- 937
- 00:57:33,580 --> 00:57:35,210
- Jimmy, way to make the double play.
- 938
- 00:57:35,210 --> 00:57:36,040
- - Thank you.
- 939
- 00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:38,490
- - Let's just keep it together
- these last two games.
- 940
- 00:57:38,490 --> 00:57:41,800
- We win this district, we
- roll through states, right?
- 941
- 00:57:41,800 --> 00:57:42,700
- Let's bring it in.
- 942
- 00:57:43,850 --> 00:57:45,220
- Oakwood, one, two, three,
- 943
- 00:57:45,220 --> 00:57:46,550
- - Oakwood!
- 944
- 00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:48,990
- - Nice game, fellas, nice game.
- 945
- 00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:54,980
- - Hey, guys, I told you
- once we got to districts,
- 946
- 00:57:54,980 --> 00:57:56,640
- we play to win.
- 947
- 00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:59,490
- I let your parents know
- you wouldn't play much.
- 948
- 00:57:59,490 --> 00:58:00,730
- You're here in case somebody gets hurt
- 949
- 00:58:00,730 --> 00:58:02,430
- or if there's an emergency, right?
- 950
- 00:58:04,810 --> 00:58:05,960
- That's all I can tell ya.
- 951
- 00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:13,720
- - Let's go.
- 952
- 00:58:14,170 --> 00:58:18,960
- - Let's go, Evans, we need
- some runs or this game's over.
- 953
- 00:58:23,140 --> 00:58:24,520
- - I got it, I got it, I got it!
- 954
- 00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:26,370
- - Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine!

- - Danny! Danny! Danny!
- 958
- 00:58:41,210 --> 00:58:43,530
- Danny! Danny! Danny!
- 959
- 00:58:43,530 --> 00:58:45,200
- Danny! Danny! Danny!
- 960
- 00:58:46,190 --> 00:58:49,080
- - Yes, keep going, go, go, go, go!

- Cruise it in, yeah!
- 963
- 00:58:54,050 --> 00:58:55,670
- Alright!
- 964
- 00:58:55,670 --> 00:58:58,090
- Let's line it up, boys, nice!
- 965
- 00:58:59,370 --> 00:59:00,210
- Good job.
- - Nice hustle,
- 966
- 00:59:00,210 --> 00:59:01,710
- good game, Sandbridge.
- 967
- 00:59:01,710 --> 00:59:03,610
- Nice job, guys.
- - Good game.
- 968
- 00:59:03,610 --> 00:59:04,650
- - Good game.
- 969
- 00:59:04,650 --> 00:59:05,480
- - Hey, Rick,
- 970
- 00:59:08,550 --> 00:59:11,030
- let's book those hotel rooms
- now for the World Series.
- 971
- 00:59:11,030 --> 00:59:13,030
- - The World Series?
- 972
- 00:59:13,030 --> 00:59:15,890
- We need to figure out
- how to get to regionals.
- 973
- 00:59:15,890 --> 00:59:16,870
- Brighton's undefeated,
- 974
- 00:59:16,870 --> 00:59:20,340
- they've outscored the other
- teams 75 to nine so far.
- 975
- 00:59:20,340 --> 00:59:22,110
- - Brighton sucked last year.
- 976
- 00:59:22,110 --> 00:59:24,290
- - Well, they don't suck now.
- 977
- 00:59:24,290 --> 00:59:26,850
- At least the Sox got a
- hundred grand for Ruth.
- 978
- 00:59:27,740 --> 00:59:29,190
- They oughta send you flowers.
- 979
- 00:59:37,450 --> 00:59:39,670
- - So you guys ready for states?
- 980
- 00:59:39,670 --> 00:59:41,850
- - Yeah, they've never been there before.
- 981
- 00:59:42,940 --> 00:59:43,930
- - You'll be fine,
- 982
- 00:59:43,930 --> 00:59:45,570
- just play your hardest
- and keep everyone focused.
- 983
- 00:59:45,570 --> 00:59:49,500
- - You sound like Dad.
- 984
- 00:59:49,500 --> 00:59:51,840
- Do you think he'll be okay?
- 985
- 00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:54,240
- - I think as long as
- we're okay, he'll be okay,
- 986
- 00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:55,290
- you know what I mean?
- 987
- 00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:01,030
- Dad's always trying to act
- like he wants us to act,
- 988
- 01:00:01,030 --> 01:00:01,990
- even when he was faking it.
- 989
- 01:00:01,990 --> 01:00:04,690
- I think he just needs to
- feed off us for a little bit.
- 990
- 01:00:06,130 --> 01:00:08,680
- So let's light these
- tournaments up, alright?
- 991
- 01:00:19,260 --> 01:00:20,700
- - This afternoon's matchup
- 992
- 01:00:20,700 --> 01:00:22,730
- features two undefeated teams,
- 993
- 01:00:22,730 --> 01:00:26,010
- the Brighton All-Stars, who
- seem to be scoring runs at will,
- 994
- 01:00:26,010 --> 01:00:29,880
- and Freeport, coming off a
- big win over the Oakwood Bats,
- 995
- 01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:33,220
- sending them to the elimination bracket.
- 996
- 01:00:55,070 --> 01:00:56,400
- - Ball.
- 997
- 01:01:06,580 --> 01:01:07,410
- Walk.
- 998
- 01:01:11,940 --> 01:01:13,660
- - Well, hopefully you'll
- get more from the next game,
- 999
- 01:01:13,660 --> 01:01:15,080
- I'm sorry about that, Lou.
- 1000
- 01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:16,540
- - Aw, come on, don't sweat it, kid.
- 1001
- 01:01:16,540 --> 01:01:18,710
- If he's as good as you say he is,
- 1002
- 01:01:18,710 --> 01:01:20,530
- I'd walk him every time too.
- 1003
- 01:01:20,530 --> 01:01:22,080
- - You sticking around?
- 1004
- 01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:23,550
- - Yeah, I'm gonna catch some
- of the Babe Ruth tournaments.
- 1005
- 01:01:23,550 --> 01:01:25,250
- There's a lot of talent out there.
- 1006
- 01:01:26,810 --> 01:01:28,910
- Alright, uh, I'll call you later, alright?

- - Yeah, sounds good.
- 1008
- 01:01:34,940 --> 01:01:36,820
- - Ball, that's a walk.
- 1009
- 01:01:44,650 --> 01:01:46,480
- - How's the arm?
- 1010
- 01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:47,650
- You did great.
- 1011
- 01:01:47,650 --> 01:01:49,260
- Head out and take center.
- 1012
- 01:01:49,260 --> 01:01:50,800
- - Coach.
- 1013
- 01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:52,660
- - Come on, we gotta save Jared's arm.
- 1014
- 01:01:55,730 --> 01:01:56,560
- Tommy!
- 1015
- 01:01:58,620 --> 01:01:59,620
- - Why him?
- 1016
- 01:02:04,910 --> 01:02:06,610

- Come on, Tommy!
- 1023
- 01:02:28,340 --> 01:02:29,340
- - Dead ball!
- 1024
- 01:02:32,430 --> 01:02:33,270
- - Blue.
- 1025
- 01:02:38,380 --> 01:02:39,220
- You nervous?
- 1026
- 01:02:39,220 --> 01:02:40,050
- - A little bit.
- 1027
- 01:02:40,050 --> 01:02:42,230
- - That's okay, you're overthrowing,
- 1028
- 01:02:42,230 --> 01:02:44,580
- just take a little something
- off it and throw strikes, okay?
- 1029
- 01:02:44,580 --> 01:02:45,410
- - Mm-hmm.
- 1030
- 01:02:46,460 --> 01:02:48,550
- - Say, guys, let's have some fun.
- 1031
- 01:02:48,550 --> 01:02:49,630
- Just playing catch.
- 1032
- 01:02:49,630 --> 01:02:52,630
- - It's okay, throw strikes, alright?
- 1033
- 01:03:52,110 --> 01:03:54,000
- - This kid's 12?
- 1034
- 01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:55,250
- - Just turned 13.
- 1035
- 01:03:56,240 --> 01:03:58,860
- His dad was in the Dodgers'
- bullpen for six years.
- 1036
- 01:03:59,780 --> 01:04:00,610
- - Great.
- 1037

- - Strike!
- 1038
- 01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:29,770
- - Okay, Cam, now you've seen one.
- 1039
- 01:04:29,770 --> 01:04:31,120
- Give his next pitch a ride.
- 1040
- 01:04:44,970 --> 01:04:46,350

- 1046
- 01:05:27,490 --> 01:05:28,320
- - Strike!
- 1047
- 01:05:30,030 --> 01:05:30,860

- 1051
- 01:05:46,670 --> 01:05:47,750
- Right, Coach?
- 1052
- 01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:55,100
- - Kyle, go have a seat, this game's over.
- 1053
- 01:05:58,200 --> 01:05:59,050
- - Let's go, Joey!
- 1054
- 01:06:13,860 --> 01:06:14,700
- - Way to go, Mason,

- 01:06:14,700 --> 01:06:16,410
- one more pitch, buddy, one more pitch!
- 1056
- 01:06:17,370 --> 01:06:19,290
- - Come on, Mase.

- 01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:34,910
- Way to go, buddy!
- 1061
- 01:06:34,910 --> 01:06:36,220
- Good job!
- 1062
- 01:06:36,220 --> 01:06:37,920
- Good job, boys!
- 1063
- 01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:46,090
- Alright, Bats on three, one, two, three,
- 1064
- 01:06:46,090 --> 01:06:47,270
- - Bats!
- - One, two, three,
- 1065
- 01:06:47,270 --> 01:06:48,410
- - Bats!
- - One, two, three,
- 1066
- 01:06:48,410 --> 01:06:49,250

- Great win out there
- today, boys, great win.
- 1069
- 01:06:52,880 --> 01:06:55,480
- Now listen, we're probably
- gonna see these guys
- 1070
- 01:06:55,480 --> 01:06:56,880
- again in the championship.
- 1071
- 01:06:56,880 --> 01:06:57,780
- - He's right.
- 1072
- 01:06:57,780 --> 01:06:59,800
- - We got a little lucky.
- 1073
- 01:06:59,800 --> 01:07:02,740
- They could afford to lose a
- game, so they held their aces,
- 1074
- 01:07:02,740 --> 01:07:04,400
- but they have to play them tomorrow,
- 1075
- 01:07:04,400 --> 01:07:06,220
- which means that their arms
- 1076
- 01:07:06,220 --> 01:07:08,310
- are gonna be tired when they play us.
- 1077
- 01:07:08,310 --> 01:07:10,110
- We are winning the championship,
- 1078
- 01:07:10,110 --> 01:07:11,580
- we are winning the regionals,
- 1079
- 01:07:11,580 --> 01:07:13,970
- and we are going to
- the World Series, yeah?
- 1080
- 01:07:13,970 --> 01:07:15,270
- - Yeah!
- - You got that?
- 1081
- 01:07:15,270 --> 01:07:16,440
- - Yeah!

- 01:07:18,460 --> 01:07:19,310
- - One, two, three,
- 1085
- 01:07:19,310 --> 01:07:20,140
- - Oakwood!
- - One, two, three,
- 1086
- 01:07:20,140 --> 01:07:21,160
- - Oakwood!
- 1087
- 01:07:21,160 --> 01:07:21,990
- - Yeah!
- 1088
- 01:07:21,990 --> 01:07:22,960
- - Yeah!
- - Woo!
- 1089
- 01:07:32,490 --> 01:07:34,990
- - Go on, go play center field.
- 1090
- 01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:40,880
- Three pitches, get us out of this, okay?
- 1091
- 01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:42,110
- You'll be good, alright?
- 1092
- 01:07:55,770 --> 01:07:58,150
- - They can't walk you now, buddy!
- 1093
- 01:07:58,150 --> 01:07:59,400
- They can't walk you now!
- 1094
- 01:08:00,380 --> 01:08:01,380
- Wait for your pitch.
- 1095
- 01:08:11,900 --> 01:08:12,730
- - Strike!
- 1096
- 01:08:15,910 --> 01:08:16,870
- - Told you he throws heat.
- 1097
- 01:08:16,870 --> 01:08:17,700
- - Mm-hmm.
- 1098

- - Strike!
- 1099
- 01:08:36,810 --> 01:08:39,730
- - That's okay, stay focused.
- 1100
- 01:08:48,510 --> 01:08:50,930
- - This should be interesting.
- 1101
- 01:09:05,970 --> 01:09:07,280
- - No, he didn't.
- 1102
- 01:09:07,280 --> 01:09:08,280
- - Holy sh...
- 1103
- 01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:12,830
- Shoes.
- 1104
- 01:09:18,490 --> 01:09:20,080
- - What'd I tell ya?

- 01:10:19,850 --> 01:10:20,890
- - You got everything?
- 1126
- 01:10:20,890 --> 01:10:21,720
- - Yep.

- 01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:22,560
- - Batting gloves?
- 1128
- 01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:23,390
- - Yep.
- 1129
- 01:10:23,390 --> 01:10:24,220
- - Alright, you excited?
- 1130
- 01:10:24,220 --> 01:10:25,460
- - Yeah, kinda nervous.
- 1131
- 01:10:26,420 --> 01:10:27,250
- - Sit down.
- 1132
- 01:10:30,420 --> 01:10:32,710
- So listen, those nerves,
- 1133
- 01:10:32,710 --> 01:10:35,610
- they'll go away when you start
- warming up, you'll be fine.
- 1134
- 01:10:36,830 --> 01:10:38,360
- But you have to leave
- it all out there today,
- 1135
- 01:10:38,360 --> 01:10:40,730
- this is everything you've
- been working towards.
- 1136
- 01:10:40,730 --> 01:10:41,560
- Alright?
- 1137
- 01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:42,390
- Win or lose,
- 1138
- 01:10:42,390 --> 01:10:44,780
- you have to know that you
- did everything you could.
- 1139
- 01:10:46,260 --> 01:10:48,310
- Alright, so they're a good team,
- 1140
- 01:10:48,310 --> 01:10:49,140
- they've been here before,
- 1141
- 01:10:49,140 --> 01:10:50,500
- and you're probably not
- gonna get much to hit,
- 1142
- 01:10:50,500 --> 01:10:53,230
- so be patient, be smart, okay?
- 1143
- 01:10:53,230 --> 01:10:54,070
- - Okay.
- 1144
- 01:10:56,530 --> 01:10:57,630
- - I'm so proud of you.

- 01:11:00,790 --> 01:11:02,560
- You've amazed me, you really have.
- 1146
- 01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:06,450
- Now let's finish this, huh?
- 1147
- 01:11:25,730 --> 01:11:27,170
- - Ladies and gentlemen,
- 1148
- 01:11:27,170 --> 01:11:30,270
- welcome to the 12-year-old
- Connecticut State Championship
- 1149
- 01:11:30,270 --> 01:11:32,740
- between Brighton and Oakwood.
- 1150
- 01:11:32,740 --> 01:11:35,370
- Both teams have four wins and one loss
- 1151
- 01:11:35,370 --> 01:11:38,320
- entering this winner-take-all game.
- 1152
- 01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:40,240
- Good luck to all of our all-stars.
- 1153
- 01:11:43,610 --> 01:11:45,580
- - Coaches, plate conference, please.
- 1154
- 01:11:50,050 --> 01:11:50,890
- How are you doing, guys?
- 1155
- 01:11:50,890 --> 01:11:51,720
- - Good, thanks.
- 1156
- 01:11:51,720 --> 01:11:54,530
- - Okay, the field is totally
- enclosed all the way around,
- 1157
- 01:11:54,530 --> 01:11:56,970
- so that means everything is in play.
- 1158
- 01:11:56,970 --> 01:11:59,550
- Oakwood, you're the defending champion,
- 1159
- 01:11:59,550 --> 01:12:02,130
- so therefore you're the home team.
- 1160
- 01:12:02,130 --> 01:12:03,570
- Are there any questions?
- 1161
- 01:12:03,570 --> 01:12:04,590
- - No, sir.
- 1162
- 01:12:04,590 --> 01:12:06,260
- - Let's play ball.
- 1163
- 01:12:06,260 --> 01:12:07,310
- - Good luck, Coach.
- 1164
- 01:12:09,160 --> 01:12:10,160
- Bring it in, boys.
- 1165
- 01:12:11,330 --> 01:12:12,230
- Come on, let's go.
- 1166
- 01:12:14,790 --> 01:12:16,350
- - Fellas, one, two, three,
- 1167
- 01:12:16,350 --> 01:12:17,190
- - Oakwood!
- 1168
- 01:12:17,190 --> 01:12:18,790
- - Let's go, hit the field!
- 1169
- 01:12:22,450 --> 01:12:23,280
- Mason...

- - Where'd that get you?
- - Where'd it hit you?
- 1233
- 01:18:40,690 --> 01:18:41,670
- - My knee.
- 1234
- 01:18:41,670 --> 01:18:42,960
- - Can you get up?
- - Can you stand?
- 1235
- 01:18:44,140 --> 01:18:45,560
- - One, two, three, yeah.

- - How many did Ricky throw yesterday?
- 1238
- 01:18:49,370 --> 01:18:51,140
- - 70, he can't go.
- 1239
- 01:18:52,380 --> 01:18:53,210
- - You alright?
- 1240
- 01:18:53,210 --> 01:18:54,980

- - Tommy!
- 1242
- 01:18:57,890 --> 01:18:58,720
- - Coach.
- 1243
- 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:03,230
- Can I pitch?
- 1244
- 01:19:05,220 --> 01:19:06,080
- - I thought you'd never ask, buddy.
- 1245
- 01:19:06,080 --> 01:19:08,060
- I thought you'd never ask.
- 1246
- 01:19:08,060 --> 01:19:09,180
- Head back on out.
- 1247
- 01:19:09,180 --> 01:19:10,680
- Brandon!
- 1248
- 01:19:10,680 --> 01:19:11,560
- Take short!
- 1249
- 01:19:12,450 --> 01:19:14,170
- - Have you seen him throw?
- 1250
- 01:19:14,170 --> 01:19:15,970
- - I heard he's never pitched before.
- 1251
- 01:19:17,240 --> 01:19:18,070
- - Really?
- 1252
- 01:19:21,100 --> 01:19:21,930
- - Kyle, don't worry,
- 1253
- 01:19:21,930 --> 01:19:24,490
- just stare at the glove
- 1254
- 01:19:24,490 --> 01:19:26,360
- and just throw like you're
- playing catch, alright?
- 1255
- 01:19:26,360 --> 01:19:27,640
- And you don't have to overthrow
- 1256
- 01:19:27,640 --> 01:19:28,770
- because you've got a strong arm,
- 1257
- 01:19:28,770 --> 01:19:29,970
- and don't worry about hitting anybody--
- 1258
- 01:19:29,970 --> 01:19:33,690
- - Coach, go have a seat, this game's over.
- 1259
- 01:19:37,220 --> 01:19:38,310
- - Go get 'em.
- 1260
- 01:19:49,470 --> 01:19:52,300
- - Just one, keep up your accuracy.
- 1261
- 01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:54,830
- Good pitch.
- 1262
- 01:19:54,830 --> 01:19:55,830
- - Bring it in, guys.
- 1263
- 01:19:58,540 --> 01:20:01,530
- Joey, the first one's coming to you, okay?
- 1264
- 01:20:01,530 --> 01:20:04,330
- - This kid's never been on a mound before,
- 1265
- 01:20:04,330 --> 01:20:05,680
- I want you stealing on the first pitch.
- 1266
- 01:20:05,680 --> 01:20:07,500
- He won't even look you back.
- 1267
- 01:20:07,500 --> 01:20:08,750
- - Okay, got it.
- 1268
- 01:20:09,740 --> 01:20:14,740
- - Look sharp!
- 1269
- 01:20:21,700 --> 01:20:22,790
- Keep running.
- 1270
- 01:20:26,070 --> 01:20:26,990
- - He's out!
- 1271
- 01:20:31,550 --> 01:20:34,720
- - One down, play's to first.
- 1272
- 01:20:46,610 --> 01:20:47,970
- - Come on now, Kyle,
- show 'em what you got.
- 1273
- 01:20:47,970 --> 01:20:49,490
- - Sit 'em down!
- 1274
- 01:20:53,420 --> 01:20:54,710
- - Honey.
- - Huh?
- 1275
- 01:20:54,710 --> 01:20:55,800
- - Watch this.
- 1276
- 01:21:16,470 --> 01:21:17,910
- - Throw that ball again, kid!
- 1277
- 01:21:17,910 --> 01:21:19,610
- Keep it up!
- 1278
- 01:21:19,610 --> 01:21:23,460
- - Go get the gun.
- 1279
- 01:21:23,460 --> 01:21:24,290
- Go get the gun.
- 1280
- 01:21:24,290 --> 01:21:25,380
- - Yeah, yeah.
- 1281
- 01:21:57,030 --> 01:21:58,230
- - Strike three.
- 1282
- 01:21:59,590 --> 01:22:02,110
- - Was that a knuckle curve?
- 1283
- 01:22:02,110 --> 01:22:04,180
- - That's two.
- 1284
- 01:22:04,180 --> 01:22:07,680
- - Did that kid just throw a knuckle curve?
- 1285
- 01:22:08,550 --> 01:22:12,550
- - Now batting,
- number 53, AJ Garcia.
- 1286
- 01:22:20,380 --> 01:22:21,210
- - Cam.
- 1287
- 01:22:44,370 --> 01:22:45,200
- - Ball.
- 1288
- 01:22:50,650 --> 01:22:52,380
- - What's he doing?
- 1289
- 01:22:52,380 --> 01:22:55,630
- - He's about to teach a bully a lesson.
- 1290
- 01:22:56,920 --> 01:22:57,760
- Hey.
- - Hi.
- 1291
- 01:23:00,030 --> 01:23:00,880
- - Is he pitching?
- 1292
- 01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:02,100
- - Yeah.
- 1293
- 01:23:02,100 --> 01:23:03,910
- How'd it go?
- 1294
- 01:23:03,910 --> 01:23:05,630
- - I let up one.
- 1295
- 01:23:05,630 --> 01:23:07,150
- - Yeah.
- 1296
- 01:23:07,150 --> 01:23:08,650
- - What's he doing?
- 1297
- 01:23:12,900 --> 01:23:15,230
- - Ball four, take your base.
- 1298
- 01:23:17,040 --> 01:23:22,040
- - Now batting,
- number 33, Mason Hastings.
- 1299
- 01:23:24,130 --> 01:23:26,230
- - That shiny new bat's not gonna help you.
- 1300
- 01:23:27,660 --> 01:23:29,640
- - You're the winning run, come on now.
- 1301
- 01:23:29,640 --> 01:23:30,810
- Let's rip one.
- 1302
- 01:23:36,630 --> 01:23:38,960
- - Looks like Cooke
- is gonna stay in the windup
- 1303
- 01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:41,050
- and focus on the batter.
- 1304
- 01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:01,480
- - You gotta be kidding me.
- 1305
- 01:24:03,580 --> 01:24:05,460
- - What the record for 12-year-old?
- 1306
- 01:24:05,460 --> 01:24:06,960
- - Well, it was 81.
- 1307
- 01:24:07,900 --> 01:24:08,730
- - Come on,
- 1308
- 01:24:08,730 --> 01:24:12,530
- get around early and drive
- that fastball, come on!
- 1309
- 01:24:12,530 --> 01:24:14,500
- - That wasn't my fastball.
- 1310
- 01:24:14,500 --> 01:24:15,950
- Do you wanna see my fastball?
- 1311
- 01:24:31,860 --> 01:24:32,690
- - Strike.
- 1312
- 01:24:39,200 --> 01:24:41,870
- - Hey, this kid's superhuman.
- 1313
- 01:24:41,870 --> 01:24:45,540
- A 12-year-old arm cannot throw that hard.
- 1314
- 01:24:45,540 --> 01:24:46,370
- - Hey, Coach,
- 1315
- 01:24:47,540 --> 01:24:50,080
- how'd you like if he threw
- that at your son's head?
- 1316
- 01:25:01,460 --> 01:25:03,620
- - Come on, throw that again.
- 1317
- 01:25:03,620 --> 01:25:05,270
- - I can throw harder if you want.
- 1318
- 01:25:05,270 --> 01:25:06,100
- - Bring it on.
- 1319
- 01:25:09,390 --> 01:25:10,640
- - You ready for the heat?
- 1320
- 01:25:19,700 --> 01:25:22,070

- 1321
- 01:25:23,680 --> 01:25:25,760
- - Good game.
- 1322
- 01:25:29,030 --> 01:25:31,450

- - Hey.
- 1331
- 01:26:30,710 --> 01:26:31,540
- Uh...
- 1332
- 01:26:33,300 --> 01:26:34,170
- I was...
- 1333
- 01:26:35,880 --> 01:26:38,870
- I was wrong not to give
- Kyle a shot last year,
- 1334
- 01:26:38,870 --> 01:26:40,650
- him and a lotta other kids.
- 1335
- 01:26:42,930 --> 01:26:44,160
- I'm really sorry about that.
- 1336
- 01:26:45,630 --> 01:26:46,460
- Your son,
- 1337
- 01:26:47,810 --> 01:26:51,110

- 1338
- 01:26:54,240 --> 01:26:55,200
- - Listen, I...
- 1339
- 01:26:56,930 --> 01:26:58,050
- I'm sorry too.
- 1340
- 01:26:58,050 --> 01:27:00,590
- - No.
- - I was, you know...
- 1341
- 01:27:00,590 --> 01:27:02,650
- Well, in a way, I should be thanking you.
- 1342
- 01:27:04,170 --> 01:27:05,470
- I don't think Kyle woulda worked that hard
- 1343
- 01:27:05,470 --> 01:27:06,570
- if he hadn't been cut.
- 1344
- 01:27:08,390 --> 01:27:09,790
- - Funny how things work out.
- 1345
- 01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:17,220
- - Good game, Coach.
- 1346
- 01:27:17,220 --> 01:27:18,050
- - Thanks.
- 1347
- 01:27:19,940 --> 01:27:22,630
- - Excuse me, Mr. Cooke, Mrs. Cooke,
- 1348
- 01:27:25,610 --> 01:27:26,490
- I'm Lou Grey,
- 1349
- 01:27:26,490 --> 01:27:27,390
- I head up scouting
- 1350
- 01:27:27,390 --> 01:27:29,860
- for Stanford University's
- baseball program.
- 1351
- 01:27:29,860 --> 01:27:33,350
- I'd like to talk to you about
- your son if you have a moment.
- 1352
- 01:27:34,180 --> 01:27:36,380
- - Isn't that some sort of,
- uh, recruiting violation?
- 1353
- 01:27:36,380 --> 01:27:39,070
- I mean, Kyle's only
- going into eighth grade.
- 1354
- 01:27:39,070 --> 01:27:40,770
- - Oh, no, no, no,
- 1355
- 01:27:40,770 --> 01:27:42,820
- I don't think Kyle's right for Stanford.
- 1356
- 01:27:42,820 --> 01:27:44,300
- This is about Xavier.
- 1357
- 01:27:44,300 --> 01:27:46,310
- Look, I caught a couple
- of his games this week,
- 1358
- 01:27:46,310 --> 01:27:47,930
- and I think with a little
- work on his breaking ball,
- 1359
- 01:27:47,930 --> 01:27:49,920
- and if his grades are good,
- 1360
- 01:27:49,920 --> 01:27:50,760
- I think we'd be interested
- 1361
- 01:27:50,760 --> 01:27:53,120
- in offering him a full scholarship.
- 1362
- 01:27:53,120 --> 01:27:54,490
- So you know,
- 1363
- 01:27:54,490 --> 01:27:57,530
- that's about a $300,000 investment
- on our part in your son.
- 1364
- 01:28:01,930 --> 01:28:03,510
- Uh, alright, alright, look,
- 1365
- 01:28:03,510 --> 01:28:06,330
- I realize this is coming
- out of, well, left field.
- 1366
- 01:28:07,830 --> 01:28:09,000
- Here's my card,
- 1367
- 01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:09,990
- why don't you guys talk about it
- 1368
- 01:28:09,990 --> 01:28:10,970
- and give me a call in a day or two
- 1369
- 01:28:10,970 --> 01:28:13,380
- and maybe we can discuss
- this further, alright?
- 1370
- 01:28:13,380 --> 01:28:14,210
- Pleasure meeting you.
- 1371
- 01:28:14,210 --> 01:28:15,390
- - Pleasure to meet you.
- 1372
- 01:28:15,390 --> 01:28:16,970
- - Thank you.
- - Thank you.
- 1373
- 01:28:16,970 --> 01:28:18,730
- Have a good day.
- 1374
- 01:28:18,730 --> 01:28:20,830
- - Uh, Mr. Grey,
- 1375
- 01:28:20,830 --> 01:28:22,680
- uh, just curious,
- 1376
- 01:28:23,870 --> 01:28:26,310
- why don't you think
- Stanford's right for Kyle?
- 1377
- 01:28:28,220 --> 01:28:30,800
- - Look, um, as a recruiting coach,
- 1378
- 01:28:30,800 --> 01:28:32,630
- I travel around the world all year long
- 1379
- 01:28:32,630 --> 01:28:35,150
- looking at young ballplayers, Mr. Cooke,
- 1380
- 01:28:35,150 --> 01:28:37,410
- there's no question in my mind
- that in a couple of years,
- 1381
- 01:28:37,410 --> 01:28:40,360
- Kyle will be the number one
- prospect on this entire planet.
- 1382
- 01:28:41,210 --> 01:28:43,010
- In fact, the day he graduates high school,
- 1383
- 01:28:43,010 --> 01:28:45,040
- some major league organization
- will be offering you
- 1384
- 01:28:45,040 --> 01:28:47,770
- a hundred-million-dollar contract.
- 1385
- 01:28:47,770 --> 01:28:49,670
- Even Stanford can't compete with that.
- 1386
- 01:28:50,740 --> 01:28:53,010
- Look, um, I have to say this,
- 1387
- 01:28:53,010 --> 01:28:53,840
- obviously,
- 1388
- 01:28:53,840 --> 01:28:55,800
- you got a couple of great
- ballplayers in your boys,
- 1389
- 01:28:56,750 --> 01:28:57,580
- from what I've seen,
- 1390
- 01:28:57,580 --> 01:29:00,020
- their interaction with
- their coaches, teammates,
- 1391
- 01:29:00,930 --> 01:29:03,090
- you two have raised two fine young men.
- 1392
- 01:29:03,940 --> 01:29:04,940
- You should be proud.
- 1393
- 01:29:06,090 --> 01:29:07,690
- Well, look, I shouldn't
- tie you up any longer.
- 1394
- 01:29:07,690 --> 01:29:09,080
- It's a pleasure meeting you.
- 1395
- 01:29:09,080 --> 01:29:11,580
- I look forward to talking some more.
- 1396
- 01:29:11,580 --> 01:29:13,160
- Have a great evening.
- 1397
- 01:29:13,160 --> 01:29:14,830
- Be well, my friends.
