THANK YOU, SPRINGFIELD!
I LOVE YOU! PEACE!
Man: Thank you, Cyndi Lauper.
Just a reminder, folks:
We do have a baseball game today.
I AM DENNIS CONROY, AND HERE COME YOUR
Isotopes!
( scattered boos)
( all gasping for breath)
LET'S WELCOME TWO NEW ADDITIONS TO THE TEAM:
Smash Diggins and Fishbone Walker.
Lucky for us, they were sent down from the majors
for drug violations.
( crowd cheering )
OH, STUPID ISOTOPES.
HURRY UP AND LOSE SO WE CAN GET OUT OF HERE!
WHY DO YOU HATE THE ISOTOPES SO MUCH, DAD?
BECAUSE I LOVED THEM ONCE AND THEY BROKE MY HEART.
LET THAT BE A LESSON TO YOU, SWEETIE.
NEVER LOVE ANYTHING.
EVEN YOU?
ESPECIALLY ME.
BUT YOU'VE GOT TO SUPPORT THE TEAM, DAD.
THEY'RE ALREADY THREATENING TO MOVE TO MOOSE JAW.
THAT'S RIGHT.
LIKE MY MOTHER ALWAYS SAID "YOU'VE GOT TO STICK IT OUT
"EVEN IF YOU PICKED A LOSER...
TO THE BITTER END."
First pitch of the game...
( screams )
That's a rotator cuff;his career is over.
I'M GOING TO WARM UP THE CAR.
BUT THERE'S ONLY BEEN ONE PITCH.
AND IT SUCKED.
Bases loaded, two outs, bottom of the ninth
AND IT'S DO OR DIE
( Homer singing ) Hitler is a jerk, Mussolini--
THAT'LL BRINGS UP BABE RUTH IV.
'Course, he's no Babe Ruth III
but the franchise is very excited
about this illegitimate great-grandbambino!
And... what's this?
He's pointing to the right field bleachers--
probably at a dying little boy.
MOM, AM I DYING?
NO, OF COURSE NOT.
IS HE, MOM? YOU CAN TELL ME.
NO.
Now he's pointing to the ground.
Is he indicating a bunt?
Yes, he's bunting!
( crowd booing )
Marge: GOOD HUSTLE, KID!
( Homer singing ) Now it doesn't work.
SO WHO WON-- THE LOSERS?
NO, THEY LOST.
( chuckling ): LOSERS.
BUT ONLY BY TWO POINTS, AND THEY DIDN'T RESORT
TO STEALING BASES LIKE THE OTHER TEAM,
SO IT'S KIND OF A MORAL VICTORY.
WITH A LITTLE MIDDLE RELIEF,
THEY MIGHT EVEN MAKE THE PLAYOFFS!
YOU'LL BE IN YOUR COLD, COLD GRAVE
BEFORE THAT EVER HAPPENS.
HOMER, WOULD YOU PLEASE STOP TALKING
ABOUT THE CHILDRENS' GRAVES?
( loud chatter and cheering )
WHOO!
WHAT'S THE HUBBUB?
DID MOE FINALLY BLOW HIS BRAINS OUT?
QUIET! WE'RE WATCHING THE ISOTOPES!
SHUT IT OFF. THEY'RE LOSERS.
WHERE YOU BEEN? THE ISOTOPES ARE ON FIRE.
YEAH. THAT SNIPER AT THE ALL-STAR GAME
WAS A BLESSING IN DISGUISE.
NOW WE'RE IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.
CHAMPIONSHIP?
WHOO! 'TOPES RULE!
WELL, HERE'S A DIE-HARD FAN.
SIR, YOUR BELOVED ISOTOPES ARE ABOUT TO MAKE HISTORY.
ANY THOUGHTS?
IT'S A GREAT TEAM, KENT.
THEY NEVER GAVE UP HOPE.
I WANT TO THANK JESUS
AND SAY HI TO MY SPECIAL LADY MARGE.
WE DID IT, BABY!
WHOO! WHOO!
THE INSPIRING WORDS OF A FAN
WHO'LL ALWAYS ROOT, ROOT, ROOT FOR THE HOME TEAM
EVEN IF THEY LOSE THIS GAME.
THEY LOST? THOSE LOSERS!
NO, NO, NO. THE GAME'S NOT OVER.
WHOO! NOT OVER! WHOO!
THERE YOU HAVE IT. WHOO.
( all cheering )
Bottom of the ninth, two outs.
It all comes down to this.
And here's the pitch.
Humping Hesus.
He got all of that one.
It's going... going... going...
OUR TECHNICAL DIRECTOR TODAY
was Stan Kadlubowski.
It's out of here!
'Topes win!
( all cheering ) ISOTOPES!
( sighs ): NOBODY TOUCHED MY RUMAKI.
WHOO! RUMAKI!
ISOTOPES! WHOO!
ISOTOPES.
ISOTOPES.
ISOTOPES.
YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYIN' TO YOU, BABY?
HEY, A BASEBALL FIELD.
BATTER UP.
( all yelling )
GO, BABY! STEAL SECOND!
I THINK I'M GOING TO PUKE!
HEY, WHO'S ON FIRST? TOUCHDOWN!
Barney: SLIDE!
Homer: SAFE!
( all cheering )
HEY, CARL. ISOTOPES!
( tires screeching )
