So board games are all well and good — I ain't got a thing against 'em — but what this ship really needs is a way to play some honest to God competitive sports. And when I say competitive sports, I mean baseball. I'd settle for basketball in a pinch, but baseball's the great American pastime for a reason.

Might just be I’m getting to that stage where I'm starting to climb the walls from not being able to do much of anything. Not that Saldanha Bay was exactly a thrill ride, but at least you could stretch your legs without bumping into bulkheads.

Anyway. If any of y'all can figure out a way to play baseball in space, I'll owe you one so big it'll have interest on it.

You don’t prefer a blaze of glory? Seems a bit suspect coming from a pilot.

[jinking]

Now that feels like a mighty broad brush you're painting with there, ma'am.

[adequacies]

Only with the softest bristles I have.

[jinking]

I like a little danger as much as anybody, but I've never been one for making a spectacle.

[adequacies]

I won’t expect any home runs if this gets off the ground then.

[jinking]

As a pilot. You get a bat in my hand and all bets are off.

[adequacies]

I’ll have to see it firsthand to believe it.

[jinking]

If the folks in charge come around, I promise you a home run.

[adequacies]

I’ll prepare to be amazed, sir.
