You Play Ball Like a Girl! vs. Campfire Tales

Your Champion
You Play Ball Like a Girl!
(The Sandlot)

VS

Your Challenger
Campfire Tales
(The Fog)

The Case for You Play Ball Like a Girl! (1):
Rival baseball teams of the juvenile variety meet up for trash talk - quickly degenerating into a back and forth between Ham (Patrick Renna) and Phillips (Wil Horneff) that culminates in an agreement to play each other once Ham crosses the line with the worst insult a pre-teen boy could give in 1962.

The Case for Campfire Tales:

The Score:  You Play Ball Like a Girl! 6, Campfire Tales 5
