2. If I were to tell you about an organized youth baseball league, you might call it… ordinary.

8. The Game Every member on the team will be supplied with a uniform jersey and a hat. Each player is assigned a buddy to assist him/her. Every player bats each inning and the last one gets a home run. Each player scores. Both teams win.
