Hello baseball fans, and welcome back to today's game! My name is Rick Fields and of course, I am here, once again, with the man that seals the deal, Bob Copeland.

It's a beautiful day to see two world class teams face each other and fight for their right to be called champions.

Well, the national anthem has just been sung, and the umpire has started the game. It's time to play ball!

Roger Vargas is up at bat. The pitcher winds up and strike one!

A very nice curve ball by the pitcher. The catcher gives him the sign, he winds up and Vargas gets a line drive!

The players are scrambling to get the ball. Vargas gets to first base and he's still going! The outfielder throws it to second! Vargas slides! He's safe!

Great play!

We have a runner on third and up at bat is Brian Okami! There's the pitch, he hits it! It's going, going, that ball is gone!

Home run by Okami! That puts this team ahead by two as we are at the bottom of the fifth inning here at Richie Stadium!

Okay, you should take 1 capsule 3 times a day. Be sure not to take it on an empty stomach, and also, don't ever mix it with alcohol!

Yes, I know. It's not the first time I'm taking this! Don't worry, I won't overdose!

Okay, anything else I can get you?

Oh, yes, I almost forgot! Can I also get some eye drops and um, some condoms?

Sure. Darn condoms aren't registered in our system.

Oh, well that's okay, I'll get some later, thanks... Really it's no problem.
