Unfortunately, when I was a kid, when everyone got together, they always wanted to play “boy” games like sports or war or somesuch. I usually ended up playing “girl” things alone.
In our front yard – with one player per team – large sidewalk blocks were both bases and basemen. An evergreen bush was the catcher. If the pitcher threw the ball and hit the base before the batter got there, that was an out. Any hit across the street was a home run.

I don’t know if Teena wants to play like girls.

It sounds like stickball. No bases, advancement is based on where you hit the ball.

If they would get this strip in sync with the calendar, we would be seeing this. Much more timely:
