as a player and a coach.

Don't move your head.

Half of baseball thinks

he's absolutely crazy,

but you can't argue with his results.

Ball on wall. Glove on wall. Knee on wall.

If anybody can do it, he can.

It can't be done.

Cricket and baseball are two

completely different throwing motions.

The biomechanics,

the timing, the sequencing,

it's just not the same at all.

I mean, even if you found me

a couple of kids,

there's no way they'd be ready

for a pro tryout,

not in a year.

So you're saying it's impossible?

I'm not saying it's impossible.

I'm just saying it's...

It's highly improbable.

Why don't you consider it

a highly improbable challenge?

Think about it.

If it doesn't work, who cares?

No harm, no foul.

But if it does work

and you take two kids

from the middle of India

who've never picked up

a baseball in their lives

and turn them into

Major League prospects in one year...

Well, I can't think of a better plug

for your methods than that, can you?

You certainly don't need any

help with your pitching, do you?

JB,

I've been through the entire list.

I cannot find a single

Major League scout

that's willing to travel around India

for three months.

I can't be there

without a scout of some kind.

Yeah, no kidding.

I need someone that's gonna be there

in a month for the start of qualifiers.

- I know that.

- Hold on. Hold on.

Hi. Are you leaving?

- Yeah, I have to go.

- Don't go.

I have to. Don't forget about me.

I will not forget about you.

I'll miss you.

Okay. Bring me something.

- I will bring you something.

- You better.

You know, I really wish

I hadn't heard that.

Bye.

Yeah, well, if you saw her,

you would understand.

- Send me a picture of her?

- No, I'm not sending you...

Are we 14?

I have to call you back.

- Hey.

- Hey.

My washing machine's broken again.

This time I think it's dead.

- Why?

- Yeah, well, it's smoking.

Literally, from the back.

And it's making this really loud noise.

It's similar to ker-chug,

ker-chug, ker-chug.

Okay, okay, Okay-

I'm leaving for India today.

Oh, that's cool.

So I don't really have time

to deal with this.

And I also really don't

have the money right now.

So could you do me a favor

and could you,

while I'm gone, just use mine?

Could you throw in free detergent

and the use of your barbecue?

- Okay, deal.

- All right, deal. Thanks, man.

- You're welcome.

- Gracias.

I think I'm ready.

Oh! Okay. Hi, Theresa.

Vivek never showed up.

Been waiting there for three hours.

I'm in a cab now.

Well, if you hear from him,

have him call me on this mobile.

You have it? Okay.

Bye.

What is with all the honking?

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

Sorry.
