Why’d they choose Mrs Godfrey to umpire the game anyway?

Calm down, Nate – You get another strike, AND at least two more at-bats after this one.

Here’s a solution Nate…hit the ball next time. No way she can screw that up.

That second pitch was high.
Nate’s going down looking because Godfrey’s in his head and yes she stinks as an umpire.
Umps are supposed to call AND signal. The call should be made with authority (she’s got that part down, although the enunciation should be closer to “Hike” – it’s easier – try shouting “Strike” for 9 innings). But her arms are hanging like limp noodles. Like many umpires she doesn’t know what she’s doing.

Maybe Godfrey’s plotting to ruin his streak!

Clearly she needs a bat cracked over her head to kick her brain stem in gear.

Part of the problem is, the ball was thrown too fast for Nate to have the reflexes to hit..
