Transcript:
"C'mon! Hit one out here!" Linus calls. He stands in profile and wears a mitt and baseball cap.<br> <br> Pluck. Linus bends down to pick a blade of grass.<br> <br> He chews on the grass.<br> <br> He spits it out as he looks up towards the sky.<br> <br> He turns and runs.<br> <br> He runs, heading towards Patty and Violet, who are turning a jumprope for Lucy as she skips rope.<br> <br> Violet, Patty and Lucy stare at Linus as he joins Lucy in the rope.<br> <br> He races through the rope to catch the ball.<br> <br> Charlie Brown and Schroeder stand at hoime plate. Charlie Brown comments, "Greatest catch I've ever seen!"<br> <br>
It surprises me that Patty is not in the BaseBallGame. She is a good player. Violet is not good at BaseBall. Perhaps, Patty is not in the BaseBallGame because Violet is not and they are best friends.
