Nancy Classics by Ernie Bushmiller for August 22, 2020

Must’ve (partially) enclosed that field in Dyersville.

If you want this kind of baseball, i.e. real sport baseball you can’t get it from the MLB – it’s far too monetized for entertainment. Go to the local minor league or bush league games. You’re right there in the action, the food’s way cheaper, and it’s much closer to the old-time experience all the way around.

I hope he didn’t run to that baseball field

I don’t recall Henry ever having this problem in Fenceville.

It’s as if an occult hand came out of the wall and cut the grass.

and just as the player turns to wonder what’s going on, the batter hits a fly ball and conks him on the head!

How green is my valley? How tall is my grass….in front of the peephole? Dats funny!

And the weedwhacker is born.

WORST WARNING TRACK EVER.

Plus, there’s not a bad seat in the house. I’ve been to many minor league games, from Low A to Triple-A in three states and it’s a great experience.

Sluggo has snipped.

Must be a boy scout, except eye holes were never that low.
