Bleh.

In another dimension, perhaps MacGyver is an avid baseball fan instead of hockey. In this one, it's a little weird seeing him appear in a baseball-centric episode, if only because it's not the sport he plays and loves. I even chuckled towards the end of the episode, when Mac throws a pitch as I imagined it not getting anywhere close to its target since Mac is not a baseball player.

This is one of those episodes where the motivations of various characters is either illogical or non-existent. The bad guys are killers not because they're really bad people, but because the script needs them to be "dangerous" in order to create tension. Other characters are sort of just aimlessly wandering around through the story, going through motions for "reasons." Even Mac seems uninterested in this one.

It's not nearly the worst episode, but it's really boring and entirely skippable.
