Linus van Pelt repairs his Mother's bike with Charlie Brown watching. Linus's Mother leaves with Rerun van Pelt on the back seat. Rerun goes through all the places they are set to visit, including the Arbor Day meeting. After Sally Brown is humiliated in class for misunderstanding the purpose of Arbor Day, she is told that she has to write a full report on Arbor day, and Linus goes with her to the library to help her with the report. Linus leaves the library after Sally's repeated attempts to make him fall in love with her. The scene cuts to Charlie Brown and Peppermint Patty talking under a tree. Patty askes Charlie Brown to explain love to her, before she cuts him out several times. She switches the topic to baseball, going over the time her team plays his team, confident that she will win over him every time. Sally, Linus, Lucy, Snoopy and Woodstock (Peanuts) decides to plant a lush garden—in Charlie Brown's baseball field, despite Linus's protests. Lucy then calls in the whole team to help with the planting. Charlie Brown is unaware on what is actually going on, and stays at home to work on his team's strategy. The gang informs Charlie Brown that they will name the field Charlie Brown field, to his happiness. He is shocked to find what has happened to the field when they show him. Charlie Brown tries to make the best of the situation by placing baseball gloves and Baseball cap on the trees. The trees catch so many fly outs, neither team is able to score. Schroeder (Peanuts) tells Lucy van Pelt that he will kiss her if she hits a home run. To Schroeder's surprise and Charlie Brown's delight, Lucy hits the home run and scores the first Run (baseball) of the game. Moments later, Charlie Brown's joy turns to anguish as the game is rained out in a huge storm. His team wins so rarely, he accepts the Rainout (sports) as a ''de facto'' victory.
