What were you doing in the outfield?! It's a new inning! We're up to bat! Calvin: Huh? Young boy 1: You caught the ball for the wrong team! You got our own guy out! What a dweeb! What a jerk!

Sports as a televised competitive thing are dumb. Sports for recreation are alright. As long as it’s fun.

Yep—because the rest of the team supported Calvin, even by looking out for the newbie, and reminding him of what he should be doing. So blame him for not knowing what nobody told him.

Calvin should just go up to Mr Lockjaw and say, “Thanks for that, coach! I’m out!” While throwing down his mitts.
