    That’s not his wife, is it? I feel like she wouldn’t take that attitude from him, but then again I’ve only seen her the once.

      Yeah when I was a kid I wondered why the batter didn’t take the bat along with them as they ran the bases, so they could slug the people trying to tag them out. My other idea was for the pitcher to set the ball on fire before throwing it.

        But if you set the ball on fire, then when the batter hits it, their bat will catch on fire, because they’re made of wood. And then they’d have a flaming bat to slug your guys with!
