Description

Tom Glavine and Greg Maddux are on the field warming up before a game with St. Louis and are a little jealous of all the oohs and aahs that Mark McGwire is getting while taking batting practice. Tom wonders, "How long are they going to worship this guy?". While Greg lets everyone know, "Hey we got Cy Young winners over here". Then they get an idea. The first thing is to get some new Nikes because as Mark's billboard advises, it really is the shoes. Then they break into a Rocky-esque training montage which includes batting practice, hitting clay pigeons, weight lifting, reading up on the secrets of hitting, getting hit repeatedly with a baseball bat, and of course triumphantly running up the stadium steps. After training is complete they catch the eye of the ladies in attendance after taking a few pre game cuts during batting practice, even if the female fans are still on the prowl for Mark. This leads to Greg turning to Tom and declaring, "Chicks Dig the Long Ball".
