The Automobiles are in the dugout at a Mini League game.
GARRY
Listen up everyone.
HUDSON
Another one of these?
WESLEY
Just let him talk.
LANDON
Your obsession with Mini League baseball is weird.
GARRY
Alright, just look at the starting lineup then.
BRAYDEN
Left field…Cooper, want to switch with me?
GARRY
No switching.
COOPER
Alright Brayden, let’s switch.
GARRY
I said no switching! Jaxon, what are you doing?
JAXON
Writing up a new batting lineup and fielding positions.
GARRY
Um, who put you in charge?
JAXON
I did.
Everyone looks at JAXON’s lineup.
SANTIAGO
This lineup is WAY better than yours, Garry.
GARRY
Garry?! Whatever happened to Coach?!
COLTON
I thought you didn’t want to always be called Coach Garry.
GARRY
Well I do now. For respect.
JAXON
Alright everyone, let’s go out there and win this game!
Everyone goes to their fielding positions, very few of which were on GARRY’s version of the lineup. They all do their part to get out of the inning without giving up any runs.
JAXON
Anything to say for yourself, “Coach Garry?”
GARRY
Yeah. I don’t like it. Back to the positions I made for next inning.
JAXON
Fine. I’ll take your suggestion.
GARRY
Not a suggestion.
When everyone goes into the positions GARRY made for them, they give up four runs.
LANDON
Guess your lineup was shit, Garry. Jaxon, your lineup was the shit!
GARRY
What’s the difference? I mean, stop swearing!
LANDON
Make me.
GARRY
I’ll tell your parents again!
LANDON
They swear more than me. By the way, I’m pitching next inning.
GARRY
No you’re not.
GAVIN
I don’t feel like pitching.
GARRY
But you’re scheduled to pitch the first four innings!
JAXON
Not according to my schedule.
GAVIN
Yeah, Coach Jaxon said I don’t have to pitch.
GARRY
Coach JAXON?! You know what? I have something to say.
HUDSON
When don’t you?
GARRY
I’ve realized the reason you’re rising up against me is that I’m being too tough on you. I need to listen to you guys more often to see what your wants and needs are. From now on, one person per game gets to pick which position they play and where they are in the batting order. Sound good?
JAXON
Yeah. Being coach is tough. Everyone always complains about you when something goes wrong. I’m stepping down as coach.
GARRY
You were never coach. Now having any organization for this game is already a lost cause, so for today only I’ll make it a free-for-all.
The Automobiles play the rest of the game and lose 14 to 1.
