Begging The Question

From the Wall Street Journal:

↵↵The team’s batting average was second in the Major Leagues at .274, but the Royals were 20th in runs scored in part because they were 14th in on-base percentage and 26th in home runs. Their solution: become more aggressive on the basepaths. [emphasis added]

↵↵Alternative solution:

↵1. Using assumed names, form kickball team to compete in local rec league.
2. Dominate league.
3. This will instill “a feel for winning,” which should transfer to baseball club.
4. Profit.
