Robots as baseball players (see also Steel or robots as boxers); Buzzfeed ranked this 15th worst of all episodes:

What if robots played baseball? Apparently: They’d be really strong, their pitches would be accompanied by VERY silly sound effects, their lack of humanity would be outed and cause a brief crisis of ethics, and then they’d be given a heart, which, surprisingly, would instill them with compassion and a desire to do social work instead of athletics. It’s all very smarmy.
