Scout is a kind and easygoing kid in Moose’s class and one of the after-school baseball game team captains. He tries to accommodate Moose’s schedule so Moose can play, though when Moose can’t make the new game that Scout sets up, Scout drops Moose as a friend for a while. The two begin playing together again when Miss Bimp pairs them up for a school project.
