Welcome to the sizzling, peaches-and-cream state of Georgia, where the sunny skies are as blue as a blueberry muffin, and the grass as green as a Granny Smith apple! A state where the kids have a serious case of baseball fever, and we're not talking about a runny nose and a sore throat. No siree! It’s a strong, incurable love for the glorious game of baseball. Meet our guide, Bases Loaded Bobby, a super cool, baseball-mad, talking squirrel with a delightful southern twang. This nutty character with a big bushy tail, not only swings a mean acorn but is the unofficial mayor of Georgia's sandlots. He spends his days scampering from one baseball diamond to another, cheering on the little sluggers, and munching on buttery popcorn. In Georgia, baseball isn't just a game; it's a way of life. Bobby often says, "These Georgia kids, they're as peppy as a pecan pie and more eager than a fox on a chicken coop!" And boy, is he right! These kids, they wake up at the crack of dawn, run to the field faster than a collard green can say "y’all", just to get that extra hour of practice before school. They swing their bats with the force of a mighty river and sprint between the bases like lightening bugs on a warm summer’s night. Every game is a carnival, filled with laughter, cheers, high fives, and the occasional pie in the face. Yes, you heard it right! Bobby, the mischievous squirrel, loves swooping in and splatting the losing coach with a peach pie. So, bring your glove, your laughter, and a good sense of humor. Welcome to the baseball-loving, peachy-keen state of Georgia!
