At home in [[ | At home in [[Mario Brothers Plumbing]], [[Mario]], having just gotten off the telephone, excitedly tells [[Luigi]] that he will never guess whom he was just on the phone with. Taking a moment to think, Luigi answers that it was [[Tommy Lasagna]], the great baseball coach. Mario asks himself how Luigi knew who it was, and Luigi tells him that he figured it out when he overheard Mario mention Mr. Lasagna's last name while he was on the phone. | ||
Mario then gets up and heads over to the kitchen area, where he picks up a freshly-cooked pot of Luigi's meatballs. Luigi asks Mario as to what he needs the meatballs for, and Mario tells him that Mr. Lasagna is probably coming over to recruit one of them as a player for his [[List of Implied Organizations#Brooklyn Dodgers|Brooklyn Dodgers]] baseball team, and that he needs them to practice his pitching. Telling Luigi to give him some space, Mario winds up a fastball with one of the meatballs, which he throws across the room, breaking a window in the process. | Mario then gets up and heads over to the kitchen area, where he picks up a freshly-cooked pot of Luigi's meatballs.

Luigi tells Mario that pitches are small potatoes, and claims that Mr. Lasagna is coming over to scout him out instead. Holding a pipe like a baseball bat, Luigi pretends that he is up to bat in the bottom of the ninth inning with two men out. Swinging the bat, Luigi imagines that he hit the ball over the fence, and begins to walk around a pretend baseline. Tired of Luigi's bragging, Mario picks up a meatball and tags Luigi out at home plate. Luigi argues that he hit the ball over the fence, and Mario reassures him that he has plenty more meatballs to spare. | Luigi tells Mario that pitches are small potatoes, and claims that Mr. Lasagna is coming over to scout him out instead.

Mario and Luigi show their gratitude towards Mr. Lasagna's arrival, but pay no attention at first to the fact that he has a meatball stuck in his mouth. Luigi asks Mr. Lasagna as to which of them made his team, but he just mumbles, prompting Luigi to pull the meatball out of his mouth. Finally able to speak, Mr. Lasagna tells them that he did not come over to tell them who made his team, and that he would still need to see their stuff. | Mario and Luigi show their gratitude towards Mr. Lasagna's arrival, but pay no attention at first to the fact that he has a meatball stuck in his mouth.

Mr. Lasagna tells Mario and Luigi to move some furniture around, so that they can have more space for a pretend baseball diamond. After being told by Mr. Lasagna that he is to pitch and Luigi is to catch, Mario claims that he can both pitch and catch, demonstrating with a baseball tied to his glove. Mr. Lasgana tells him to stop fooling around, and after winding up a pitch for a while, Mario tosses the ball way over Luigi's head, and it crashes into the backwall. Luigi asks Mr. Lasagna as to what his radar says, and reading a sign that is suddenly hanging from it, he says, "Don't give up your day job." Upon hearing this, Luigi and Mr. Lasagna laugh at Mario. | Mr. Lasagna tells Mario and Luigi to move some furniture around, so that they can have more space for a pretend baseball diamond.

Mr. Lasagna tells Mario and Luigi that since he has already tasted the meatballs, that he is going to take them back to the ballpark with him. Mario asks if he is going to feed them to the team, and Mr. Lasagna corrects him, saying that he will cover them with leather and use them as baseballs, which can help him get out of the cellar. Luigi asks Mr. Lasagna if he meant to get out of the bottom of the league, but Mr. Lasagna clarifies that he meant their basement apartment. | Mr. Lasagna tells Mario and Luigi that since he has already tasted the meatballs, that he is going to take them back to the ballpark with him.

Before Mr. Lasagna can leave, Mario asks what he and Luigi are left with. Mr. Lasagna tells them that there is still something they can do at the ballpark, which Mario guesses has to do with pitching. Mr. Lasagna instead tells him that he can toss [[peanut]]s, as he pulls a bag of them out of his pocket, and tosses it to Mario, followed by a second bag to Luigi. As Mr. Lasagna makes his way out of the basement, Mario and Luigi proceed to eat their peanuts. | Before Mr. Lasagna can leave, Mario asks what he and Luigi are left with.
