Guest Voices: Tony Bennett as Himself and Tom Poston as the Capital City Goofball Synopsis On a night at Moe's Tavern, Homer tells everyone "the story of how he became a loser." It's Nuclear Plant Employee, Spouses and No More than Three Children Night at the Springfield Isotopes baseball game at Springfield Stadium. Mr. Burns throws the first ball, Bleeding Gums Murphy sings an extremely long version of "The Star Spangled Banner" that only Lisa stands up for during its entirity, and Bart wants a baseball signed by baseball player Flash Baylor. At the game, Mr. Burns sits with Homer, taunting the Isotopes, which are expected to lose again after losing 26 consecutive games, reportedly (in the world of The Simpsons) the longest in professional baseball. But when Homer fires up the crowd—to the tune of "Baby Elephant Walk" and the disappointment of his family—the Isotopes win a game. Because of this, Homer is made the Springfield Isotopes mascot, "Dancin' Homer". Thanks to his spirit, the Isotopes win more games until one night, when after the Isotopes lose, Homer is promoted by Antoine "Tex" O'Hara to the team in Capital City. The Simpsons move to Capital City, to the tune of Tony Bennett singing a song about Capital City, and Homer becomes another mascot of the team, joining the Capital City Goofball. But when "Dancin' Homer" does his act in Capital City, he is booed and eventually fired from the team, ending Homer's story. The people at the bar suggest that Homer tell it again. Trivia - First episode with the Springfield Isotopes.
