Pitch: Best Moments from ‘Beanball’ (Season 1 Episode 3)
6. A Fight Breaks Out
When it’s Ginny’s turn to bat, the code says that she should get hit by the pitcher. When that doesn’t happen, Ginny gets upset that she’s being treated differently.
She takes off toward the pitcher, but Trevor stops her, and they argue. It’s Tommy who jumps in, and a fight breaks out between both teams. It’s pretty epic, and it shows something that’s really significant about the game — team loyalty.
7. Al Speaks Korean
All this time that Oscar has been desperately looking for a translator, Al has had the ability to speak Korean. It’s kind of a badass moment, even if Al does have to deliver bad news.
8. Ginny Meets Daniella
Ginny makes that little girl’s dream come true, and it’s just a sweet moment. She’s also a little surprised when Daniella admits to understanding where Ginny is coming from. Adorable.
9. Ginny and Mike Have a Heart to Heart
Mike admits his bias in wanting to protect Ginny, and he also tells Ginny that it blows him away to see her deal with everything the way she does. I’m excited to see their friendship evolve.
Plus, bonus points for the Duck Dynasty joke. Even more bonus points in that this is kind of another meta moment. Zack Morris never had a beard like that, you guys.
10. Tommy Warms Up to Ginny
Ginny proved her loyalty to her team, and that seems to have won over Tommy, who wasn’t exactly thrilled at having her join in the beginning. He lets her know she’s welcome to go out with the guys, and maybe, just maybe, she’s going to start feeling more like a member of the team.
