Sunny Day

 * I think we're all ready to play some baseball!
 * It's time to get down with your favorite baseball players!
 * (custom player) steps up to bat.
 * (when the computer player's turn to bat ends) Alright, it's our turn now!
 * (player hits a home run) Goodbye, baseball!
 * (player line drives) A bouncing ball.
 * (time-out) The coach calls time-out!

Vinnie the Gooch

 * Waaaaiiit a minute. The Gooch does not under any circumstances say "Hi ho". Sunny Day may be saying "Hi ho", but The Gooch just says YO! (Sunny Day: Whatever, Vinny)
 * Vinny da Gooch is lovin' that!
 * (describing Pablo) Even though the Secret Weapon doesn't speak any English, we all know he's a rad dude!
 * (describing Achmed) Achmed is one of the best hitters on the team!
 * (describing Dmitri during pitch) If Dmitri's arm lasts long enough, we might be able to see an amazing right hook, or maybe even a superfying slo-mo.
 * (describing Maria during pitch) All I can say is; if Maria's team color is pink, batters beware. she likes pink. a lot.
 * This young batter means business.
 * (when a homerun happens) I don't know what kind of pitch that was, but it tasted just like chicken!
 * (when a player gets out) He/She was robbed!
 * (when a player makes it home) Sweet as candy i tell ya! I like candy, everybody likes candy. That's why Halloween is such a popular holiday!
 * (describing Sunny Day) What she means is she's never gonna stop yapping. (Sunny Day: It's my job, Vinny!)
 * (when a homerun happens) Aloha means goodbye, baby.
 * (when a strike happens) He/She was in there like swimwear.
 * (player gets second strike) He/she's really struggling out there.
 * (when a female player steps up to bat) This girl's a scrapper! Look at that determination!
 * (when a player steps up to bat) This young batter eats left hooks for breakfast!
 * (player strikes out) You can't win 'em all.
 * (players crash into each other) Ouch! They gotta watch where they're goin' out there!
 * (players crash into each other) Thanks for that lesson on gravity.
 * (catch missed) P.U.! Stinkaroonie!
 * (when someone successfully steals home or a walk happens) Who needs movies when life is this exciting?

 * (gets a strike) Lame.
 * (whiffed by ball) Okay. Try this time.

Ashley/Sidney Webber

 * Baseball is a nice change of pace for me, because I play tennis all day long.
 * I've got tennis lessons later this afternoon ya'know.
 * My dad says I should play infield, so I don't throw my arm out.
 * Ashley and I are pretty good baseball players!
 * Sidney and I are pretty good baseball players!
 * (one of the twins getting picked) Goody! Now pick my sister Ashley/Sidney too!
 * (the other twin getting picked) Oh, goody! Ashley/Sidney and I are on the same team!
 * (only one twin getting picked) Goody!
 * (not getting picked) That's okay. I'll just watch.
 * (not getting picked) Okay...if that's what you want.
 * (during the chatter) We've got spirit, yes we do. We've got spirit, how 'bout you?
 * (stepping up to bat) I'm gonna crush this one!
 * (stepping up to bat) I'm gonna smash the ball outta here!
 * (after striking out) Oh well, it's just a game.
 * (after striking out) Tennis is my sport anyway.
 * (on the mound) I'm gonna ace this one!
 * (on the mound) I'm gonna try really hard this time!
 * (after striking someone out) Aced 'em!
 * (after striking someone out) Aced it! (they also say this if they make a catch)
 * (getting tired) Say, my tennis elbow is acting up.
 * (getting tired) I'm kind of getting tired of pitching.
 * (batter chatter) We want a batter, not a broken ladder!
 * (batter chatter) 2 bits, 4 bits, 6 bits a dollar, all for our team, stand up and holler!
 * (meet the players) Our dad tells us to be careful when we play baseball, because he doesn't want us to mess up our serve. He says he has too much invested in our tennis, so we have to be very careful every time we go out and play. If you see him coming, holler, so can pretend like we're just watching!
 * (Ashley during meet the players) Sidney and I are state champions in under 9 girls doubles tennis! We don't like to brag about it, but our daddy says that we should take pride in his and our accomplishments. He has a little room where he keeps all our ribbons and trophies. He says we're going to be the next Monica Seles! And if he plays his cards right, he says he can avoid being like the father of Steffi Graf! We don't know what he means by that.
 * (Ashley during meet the players) Sidney's backhand is really good, but I've got the best forehand!
 * (Ashley during meet the players) I always thought Sidney got all the brains and I got all the looks, but don't tell her I said that! She's also not as good at baseball as I am. But, she's a great sister, and I love her to pieces! Daddy says she's the yin to my yang! Whatever!
 * (Ashley during meet the players) We have an older sister who plays tennis too, and she's really good! She'll probably get a scholarship or something, maybe even turn pro! I don't want to play tennis forever, though. I want to be an artist when I grow up. Don't tell Daddy, though!
 * (Sidney during meet the players) We went to the doctor's the other day, and he says Ashley and I have 20/20 vision! I guess that means we can see really good! I don't know what the numbers mean, though. Maybe it has something to do with that, uh, television show! Y'know, 20/20!
 * (Sidney during meet the players) I always thought Ashley got all the brains and I got all the looks, but don't tell her I said that! She's also not as good at baseball as I am. But, she's a great sister, and I love her to pieces! Daddy says she's the yin to my yang! Whatever!
 * (Sidney during meet the players) Ashley's backhand is really good, but I've got the best forehand!
 * (Sidney during meet the players) We have tennis lessons all year round! During the school year, we get up extra early, so we can practice before school. And when school is out, we go and practice some more. Sometimes though, we get to do fun stuff instead, like ride bikes or play tag!
 * (gets a strike) Dumb bat.
 * (hitting a home run) Point, set, match.
 * (during the chatter) Shoe's untied! (2003)
