Softball Game Score

My Niece (Tonya) coaches a softball team. As I was driving home from work one day, I stopped to watch a game that was being played in a park near my home.

As I sat down behind the plate, I asked Angela, one of the players what the score was.

"We're behind 6 to nothing," she answered with a smile.

"Really," I said. "I have to say Angela, you don't look very discouraged."

"Discouraged?" Angela asked with a puzzled look on her face. "Why should we be discouraged? We haven't been up to bat yet."
