[Larry jogs out to the mound to break up a players' conference] Larry: Excuse me,
but what the hell's going on out here?
Crash Davis: Well, Nuke's scared because his eyelids are jammed and his
old man's here. We need a live... is it a live rooster? [Jose nods]
Crash Davis: We need a live rooster to take
the curse off Jose's glove and nobody seems to know what to get Millie or Jimmy for their wedding present. [to the players]
Crash Davis: Is that about right? [the players nod]
Crash Davis: We're dealing with a lot of shit.
Larry: Okay, well, uh... candlesticks always make a nice gift, and uh, maybe you could find out where she's registered and
maybe a place-setting or maybe a silverware pattern. Okay, let's get two! Go get 'em.
