Homer at the Bat
Recap
When the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant softball team proves to be pretty decent with Homer as the star player, Homer makes a bet with the Shelbyville Nuclear Power Plant owner. In order to guarantee a victory, Mr. Burns hires nine professional athletes as ringers: Wade Boggs, José Canseco, Roger Clemens, Ken Griffey, Jr., Don Mattingly, Steve Sax, Mike Scioscia, Ozzie Smith, Terry Cashman and Darryl Strawberry. However, as one-by-one they fall victim to misfortunes, the original Springfield team goes up against Shelby and wins.






Homer: We shows girls love on Valentine's Day, and they let us blow things up on the Fourth of July. I just pray they never fall on the same day.
