He joins Finnegan, Roper, Dale, and Plummer cruising the campus by car, looking for women..

Trivia

Richard Linklater did in fact play baseball in his school years. He always remembered how everyone in his team were competitors and would compete at just about anything to prove who was better. A lot of this film is autobiographical like many of his films and just like in this film, he remembered what was great about those days wasn't just about the baseball games but mainly the things he and his team mates got up to.

Quotes

Finnegan: You get a bunch of competitors together and you are addicted to winning

Crazy Credits

The closing credits have a rap by all team members halfway through the credits. They show the whole Sound Machine set and some backstage areas.
