ELENA, MARISSA, KATIE, TRISH, KRISTIN, CAROLYN, and VAL are sitting in the Bridgeport Zebras' bullpen. It is the fifth inning.
KATIE
Hey Elena, whatever happened to that "special someone" you said was coming today?
ELENA
He's coming. He'll be here any inning now.
CAROLYN
Well I'm sure he's lovely whoever he is.
ELENA
Huh?
CAROLYN
Your boyfriend.
ELENA
What boyfriend?
Nobody answers.
ELENA
Anyone?
MARISSA
You said a special someone was coming to visit our bullpen today. Your words, coach, not ours.
ELENA
Oh. No. I was being sarcastic.
VAL
So why don't you just break up with him then if you don't like him?
TRISH
Yeah coach, it's not that complicated.
ELENA
I DON'T HAVE A BOYFRIEND!!!!
MAN IN THE CROWD
I'LL BE YOUR BOYFRIEND!
His friends start laughing and high fiving him.
TRISH
I can take care of that for you if you want, coach.
Suddenly, VAL takes a pack of bubble gum and throws it right at the man's face.
ELENA
Thanks for the offer, but Val's already on it.
Right then, a man enters the bullpen.
ELENA
I DON'T WANT TO BE YOUR GIRLFRIEND!!! NOW GET OUT!
SECURITY comes over and escorts the man out of the bullpen.
MAN IN THE CROWD
NICE TRY BUT I'M STILL HERE!
ELENA looks confused.
KRISTIN
Why did security escort him back to his seat? Totally inappropriate.
TRISH
You girls wouldn't let me take care of it. This is what happens!
CAROLYN
How do I say this politely?
MELISSA
Just say it.
CAROLYN
Well...you don't think maybe that was a different person?
VAL
Ooooh Elena's got all the guys after her today.
MAN IN THE CROWD
CAN I BE YOUR SPECIAL SOMEONE?
He and the guys around him start laughing again.
ELENA
That was the so-called special someone who I just kicked out, wasn't it?
TRISH
How do you even do that, don't you know what he looks like?
ELENA
It all happened so fast!
CAROLYN
I'm sure you can reschedule.
VAL
Who was it, anyway?
ELENA
Oh, nobody.
MELISSA
So it WAS your boyfriend!
ELENA
More like the station manager at RSN Bridgeport.
Everyone looks at Elena blankly.
ELENA
The TV station that airs our games?
VAL
Ohhhhhhh.
ELENA
Yeah.
TRISH breaks out laughing.
TRISH
Wow, I would NOT want to be you right now, Elena!
