The Fernwood Valley Fuzzies have a baseball game set with the undefeated and impeccable Geartown Clankees. The Clankees perform like well-oiled machines…mainly because they are robots in disguise just wanting to fit in and feel the love of good sportsmanship deep inside their gears. It’s a battle of bolts, brawn, and stamina as the Fuzzies must keep up with their robotic counterparts if they are to win the game. With their rookie, Blossom Honey Possum, benched due to her fear of robots and their hitter, Walter Wombat, determined to win at any costs, the Fuzzies are up for the fight of their lives. Forget about 7 inning stretch, try 38 inning stretch! Play ball!
