    Well that sure was an exciting ball game! I’m sure we’ll see another one in 5 weeks.

    P1 – Must be a Tuesday and #12 loaded up on tacos at lunch, based on BB’s moving away and the foul look on his face.

    P2 – Well look at Gil, he showed up for a game and is coaching third for some reason. His legs grew, or torso shrunk, and he shaved off a few decades on his face. Meanwhile Moose apparently lost his neck.

    P3 – I like how the batter is frowning even before he knows he missed the ball.

    P1, Even the ants are running away from Young Master Bader.

    P2, Sorry, Bader, it looks like the new second baseman is a power hitter and Gil and the chicks dig the long ball.

    P3, Van Awkward must have a helluva a fastball if the catcher has to be so far away from the plate not even his glove appears in the frame.

    P1 Bader’s teammate needs a bigger hat or a smaller head. Plus, a player serving a suspension is usually not allowed on the bench!!!

    P1- Much like a deviant Amish lad, Young Master is shunned.

    P2- GilPa doles out Bader’s suspension and defies the rules by refusing to wear a protective helmet in the field.

    P3- Van Auken must have let Barry B. rub up the ball. It looks pissed.

    P2 – nice to see Gil had time to change into uniform after running his youth clinic at Milford CC…and by youth clinic, I mean a complete exam of the young lads including cavity search as he rates them for future shower potential

    P3- No need to keep it trademark up with the aluminum bats, as Tilden’s #7 demonstrates

    P2 – just noticed, apparently Gil borrowed Steve Boone’s prosthesis at the Club today and forgot to give it back…that’s a hand to stump shake for sure

    Where’s Gil’s hat? He should be fined.

    If Kaz had let him continue arguing with the umpire and get thrown out of the game, he wouldn’t have got the two-game suspension!

    This strip always features suspensions. But normally it’s a suspension of disbelief.

    NCHS State titles are this week. Two of three. A few are actually already over. My great nephew’s team played their first American Legion game last night.

    Where I live, high school baseball is in the playoffs. Milford must follow a different calendar.

    Based on the view we had of Barry in the hallway yesterday, I’m surprised he can sit on the bench and have his feet touch the ground.
