In this episode we take a break from the war for a game of baseball against some Vulcan's. Let's have a meeting about the game.
Worf Zinger #1: "We will destroy them."
And now we will take a moment to watch the crew learn the rules and say silly things. Oh look, Rom and Lita want to play, but Quark is being a party pooper.
Okay! Time for practice! We've got a very different side of Sisko here. He's all business, but in a fun way. Looks like we've got a lot of work to do.
Reluctant Umpire Odo is reluctant. Ouch everyone is hurt. Sisko is still excited though so he recruits his girl friend. Hey hey! Things are looking much better. Except for Rom, he's having struggles.
Frustrated Sisko is frustrated. Rebellion is fomenting. Scotch infused gum is Scotch infused. And now we get the story behind Sisko's rivalry with Solak. Its pretty funny. Sisko makes Cassidy promise not to tell the rest of the team. She promises. Cut to Cassidy telling the team.
Oh good! That game is starting! Let's hear some chatter 9ers!
Worf Zinger #2: "Death to the opposition!"
Fhew, this game is tense. The Vulcan's are playing to win today, that's for sure. Odo is killing it as an umpire. Hotheaded Sisko just got thrown out leaving O'Brien to take the reigns. Lita pulls a Fancy Dan! What a game!
Quark fields, throws to Worf at first! Worf throws home! He didn't touch the plate! Unbelievable!! Nog doesn't know what to do! I've never seen anything like this before!
Worf Zinger #3: "Find him and kill him!"
He's out!
New inning. Nog's on third, the 9ers could score! What's this, Rom is pinch hitting for Jake?! Unbelievable! Are you inspired? I'm inspired! He's got the crowd on his side that's for sure, let's see if he can deliver. Ouch, two strikes. The team wants him to bunt but he doesn't seem to understand. Its a hit! Nog might make it home! Vulcan scoops it up! Nog slides! Safe! The 9ers brought home a run! He did it! Rom did it! And now Solak is getting ejected for contact with the ump! What a game! What a game!
The team throws a party to celebrate their victory. Emotional Vulcan's are emotional. Nice fade out at the end.
As filler goes this is as good as it gets. I wish the producers of Discovery would watch this one. Star Trek used to be fun. The writers were confident enough in their characters to not take themselves seriously all of the time. I miss that.
Verdict: Death to the opposition!
