I was the new coach of a Little League baseball team and had not yet learned the names of my players. At our first game, I called each boy by the number on his uniform. When I yelled,Number5, your time to bat, Jeff Smith came to the plate to hit. When I called for Number 7, Steve Heinz jumped up. Then I asked for Number 1, and no one emerged from the dugout. Again I called for Number 1. Still no one.


　　As the umpire looked on, annoyed at this delay of the game, I shouted, Who is Number 1?


　　That's when the whole team yelled, We are, Coach! We are!
