## General

* **Morals:**
	+ Cheaters never prosper.
	+ Good sportsmanship is much more important than winning and part of it is accepting defeat and being happy for the other team that won.
	+ Just because someone is mean doesn't mean you should be mean to them back.
* This marks the first time all seven of Cricket and Tilly's major and recurring friends (Remy, Benny, Kiki, Weezie, Gabriella, Andromeda and Gregly) appear in-episode together.
* This is the third time Tilly wears her hair in a ponytail, the first two being "Clubbed" and "Tilly Style".
* This marks the first time Cricket wears shoes throughout the entire episode.
	+ This is also an instance of Cricket and Tilly not being in their regular wear throughout the entire episode.
* This is Andromeda's first speaking role since "Bill-iever".
* A running gag in this episode is someone talking through "baseball talk", or charades. The Greens previously used charades and sign language in "Quiet Please" to communicate in the library without talking or making noise.
	+ Another running gag is Benny wanting to play, despite everyone else objecting.
* This episode hints Cricket, Tilly and all their friends (aside from Benny) are no more than 11-12 years old, because when Nancy joins the team, she passes off as an 11-year old. In reality, only people less than 15 are allowed on little league.
* Nancy is revealed to be a big fan of baseball for a long while now. She even shows great pitching and batting ability, being able to score wild pitches and even scoring a home run for the Sue-Zers.
* Nancy meets Gabriella for the first time, and first hears of her relationship with Cricket.
	+ With Bill and Gramma knowing of the two's relationship in "Date Night" (Tilly already knew of the relationship by the time of "Big Resolution"), Nancy was the last of the nuclear Greens to hear of Cricket and Gabriella's relationship.
* The ending hints that the Sue-zers didn't really have the best season, even with Nancy; as a baseball season, for example, places a team into gradually increasing brackets of skill, they may be overwhelmed by the away team's higher skill. The season may have also been played without Nancy in play.
* It's unknown if Nancy was still on the team or got exposed by the end of the season. Being exposed as an adult runs the risk of either getting disqualified from the team or having the entire team be disqualified.
* A little league season normally lasts from early March to late May, while upper divisions continue with post-season tournaments and all-star championships in late June to early July. This places the episode some time in the beginning of March since Sue says it's the start of the season.
	+ Coincidentally, this episode was released during a little league season.
* For an unknown reason, the Greens and Remingtons are the only known family members watching the game.
* Russell is shown to think lowly of baseball.
* **Irony:** Nancy hated seeing the away team's bad sportsmanship, but over the course of her time as a team player, taught *her* teammates bad sportsmanship.
* Community Dan is the only Elites member who shows bad sportsmanship by the end of the episode; to the contrary, his team has shown good sportsmanship, complimenting the Sue-Zers on a "good game" instead of taunting. This hints that they've changed after seeing the Sue-Zers purposely throw the match for their sake.
* Befitting her pacifism, Tilly is the only player who doesn't physically nor verbally attack the away team, only siccing a butterfly after a player.
	+ Despite this, Tilly is the only one who seems to be injured during the aftermath of the first eleven innings.
* This is the second episode to feature the word "turd", being used by Gregly; the first is "Tilly Style" when Cricket admits he was a turd - about being heard, of course.
	+ This is notable as not many Disney animated series use this word; the only other instance is in *Star vs. the Forces of Evil* where Pony Head calls Marco Diaz "Earth Turd" frequently.
* This episode and "The Van" were released on Passover 2021.
* Before Nancy joined, Cricket was the pitcher signifying him as the leader. When Nancy joins the team and Benny is bumped off, Nancy takes over as the pitcher while Cricket moves to the left field. This could be a foreshadowing of Nancy's reckless sportsmanship as she just usurped Cricket's leader position and shunted him into the background.
	+ If you look closely as Nancy first steps onto the pitcher's mound, Cricket's mouth opens slightly as if he's shocked Nancy just took over his position.
* In baseball, the mitt is worn on the non-dominant hand. Cricket, Remy, Gabriella, Kiki and Benny wear their mitts on their left hand, while Tilly, Weezie, Andromeda and Gregly wear theirs on their right hand. This shows the former five are right handed while the latter four are left handed; however, Tilly and Andromeda were seen writing right handed, hinting they could be ambidextrous.
* There is a lot of "tempting fate" in this episode:
	+ In the bleachers, Nancy says, "Nothing's gettin' in the way of my kids winning." Right after she says this, the Elites arrive.
	+ Tilly assumes to Remy the Elites "don't seem so bad." Dan and the Elites mock Sue right after this.
	+ Tilly tells a butterfly, "The pitcher's my brother." Her *mother* ends up becoming the pitcher when she joins the team and bumps Benny off.
* One of the Elites bears more than a striking resemblance to Gloria.
* This is the final appearance of Remy in Season 2.
* This is Rob Riggle's fourth Disney role, but his third for Disney TVA; he also played Noel in *Prep and Landing*, Greg Jack from *Big Hero 6: The Series*, Phil from the *Wander Over Yonder* episode "The Family Reunion", and Doug Clancy from *Fancy Nancy*.
* Oddly enough, we never see Bill and Gramma's reactions after the Sue-Zers throw the match. Russell's reaction is heard just before the Sue-Zers begin to throw the match.
* This is the first episode where Cricket and Gabriella hug each other.

## Continuity

* Donna, the librarian from "Tilly Calls a Library" and the resident of the Elkins apartment who got evicted in "Chipocalypse Now", appears again.
* Fred of Fred's Bats from "Forbidden Feline" also appears.
* Alice wears the same sunglasses from "Animal Farm".
