(He'll spell it for him, for the amount of cajoling it took to get Bruce in this thing.)
"Baseball is a game," he says, already sitting forward to attempt to yank a coil of tension out of his shoulder - Bruce's therapeutic manipulations always look just as painful as his hand-to-hand combat. "People on Earth pretend it's more interesting than it is out of no alternative to tradition. You get a stick and hit a ball with it and go run in a circle before people get the ball back to the starting point. A baseball bat is the stick, made out of solid wood, a bit like a katana, lopsided. Most people can crack someone's head open with one on a decent swing."
America's national sport, ladies and gentleman. He reaches past Seoraj's shoulder to stretch, uncharacteristically (by virtue of acclimation) unconcerned with personal space.
