Logan Gilbert’s a nerd: He works hard and loves the science of pitching. And while he’s clearly part of the group, it seems to me that he endures a bit more teasing than the other players do. He’s the Mariners’ Lisa Simpson (complimentary).

In the Simpsons’ classic season seven finale, The Summer of 4 Ft. 2, the Simpson family takes off to the beach for two weeks, and Lisa tries on a new cool-kid persona, which helps her make friends in the beach town’s social scene. A jealous Bart tries to sabotage Lisa by showing them her yearbook to evidence her true nature as a teacher’s pet, but they continue to like her anyway, and she learns a valuable lesson about evolving while also being true to yourself.
