Good ol' ball game

Justin played for a "novice" baseball team this spring. He started out strong: running to get every ball, regardless of whether or not he was nearest it. Justin "doldrummed" in the middle of the season, preferring to trash talk the opponents, play with the dust, and swing with minimal effort after the ball was safely behind him. A spectacular motherlode of talent was unleashed with the simple bribe of chocolate for each hit and catch. Yes, we sunk that low, and it worked instantly.
