Sports Night, Season 1

Casey:
You should try making it shorter.

Jeremy:
What's the key?

Casey:
In this case?

Jeremy:
Yeah.

Casey:
Making it a lot shorter.

Jeremy:
I can't imagine what i'd cut.

Casey:
Well, you start off with Cedric, the leadoff batter, at the top of the first inning, despite the fact that nobody scored until the 5th inning.

Jeremy:
There's action beyond scoring.

Casey:
Yeah, but Cedric grounded out to the short stop and was thrown out at first by quite a large margin.

Jeremy:
Yeah.

Casey:
Well, that is what is called a routine ground ball. In your search for things that are newsworthy, let the word 'routine' serve as a danger sign.
