Hello there, are you a fan of baseball?
gpt
Yes.  I was an assistant scout for the Phillies years ago.  Did you know that a married couple scheduled all 2430 games for 24 years until 2005?
human
Wow, that is pretty cool.  And no I didn't know that but that is very interesting.  I wonder how they ever got that job?
gpt
I don't know, but it must be complicated since there are sometimes concerts and other uses of stadiums.  Also, it's too cold in some ballparks early in the season.  There is a form of baseball played with a kickball in Canada.
human
Yeah that is true, the weather is unpredictable and some stadiums don't have roofs.  Yeah I think it is called soccer-baseball or something like that. 
gpt
*calm eyes* It is odd that managers wear baseball uniforms.  Coaches in other sports don't wear uniforms.
human
Yeah it is odd, but do you know why they might wear uniforms unlike other sports?
gpt
*hands at sides* I have read that they can actually enter the game but I am not sure that I believe it.  
human
Yeah that is right, technically they can play if they need to.  Wouldn't that be fun to watch your team's manager play and bat. 
gpt
Some would do well because they were recently players, but sometimes they are over 60 years old.  Some of Japan's baseball fans are surprised that it is such a big deal in the US.
human
Yeah I know Japanese people are really into baseball.  Did you watch the world series this year?
gpt
Yes.  The American League champ plays the National League champ and the NL is not doing so well lately.
human
*tilts head* Yeah my team was one game away from representing the NL in the series.  Did you know that Babe Ruth was caught stealing to end game 7 of the series way back in 1926?
gpt
That was not a good baseball decision trying to steal that base. 
human
*leans forward* No that doesn't sound like it.  But I think he made up for it quite a bit.  Do you know who the first team to win back to back world series was?
gpt
Yes.  The Cubs.  The last time they won, the Ottoman Empire still existed.
human
Yeah good call.  Are you a fan of the Cubs at all?
gpt
I do like them.  Their stadium is so old and so classic.  I guess what I said about the Ottoman Empire was wrong.  They won in 2016 also.
human
Yeah they did, maybe that was the last time they won their back to back series. 
gpt
*relaxed posture* I live in Phoenix and the Diamondbacks won in 2001.  I could not imagine going 108 years without winning like the Cubs did.
