A young boy was heard talking to himself as he wandered through his backyard, sporting a full baseball uniform, jersey and cap included, as well as a ball and bat. "I'm the best hitter in the world," he declared confidently to the crowd. He tossed the ball high into the air and swung with all his might, but missed completely. "Strike One!" he called out.
Undeterred, he picked the ball back up and proclaimed once more, "I'm the best hitter in the world!" He threw the ball up again, watched it descend, and swung hard. The bat cut through empty air. "Strike Two!" he announced.
The boy paused thoughtfully, examining his bat and ball with careful attention. He spat on his palms and rubbed them together for better grip. He adjusted his hat and declared with renewed confidence, "I'm the best hitter in the world!" Once more, he threw the ball skyward and swung with determination. Again, he missed entirely. "Strike Three! Wow!" the boy exclaimed with genuine excitement. "I'm the best pitcher in the world!"
