Basic Trope: An episode of a TV show or anime is about baseball.
- Straight: On one episode of the sitcom Alice and Bob, the titular duo participate in a baseball game for the Trope Co. Tarantulas.
- Exaggerated:
- An entire season consists of these.
- Alice and Bob play a full 162-game season for the Trope Co. Tarantulas.
- Downplayed: Baseball only appears for 5 minutes of the episode's 30 minute rumtime.
- Justified: It's their favourite sport.
- Inverted: Alice and Bob partake in all sports but baseball in one episode.
- Subverted: Alice and Bob go into a ballpark... only to pick up a hot dog then leave.
- Double Subverted: The exit is where the baseball game happens.
- Averted: Baseball isn't mentioned theough the entire show.
- Enforced:
- The production company got a deal with a Major League Baseball.
- The show focuses on the woes of a down on their luck baseball team. Not showing them playing baseball would make them The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything.
