Peanuts by Charles Schulz for July 25, 2019

as if the team can pull off a fund raiser for a caterer, Lucille

Maybe Lucy doesn’t want to play, what she seems to want is a picnic. CB, you must give her a packet of cookies to keep her quiet.

I know nothing about baseball. What’s an expansion club?

Yeah, she’s definitely hungry!

Lucy, go back to the outfield and look around for warm plastic baggies, left behind by someone after doing ‘walkies’ with their dog … that should cure your obsession for snacks.

Antipasto or Caesar salad would be nice too.

which at the time this was drawn would have been about five years in the future, either in Seattle or Toronto…

There are no cookies in baseball.

and people think MLB games are slow

I remember when there were 16 major league baseball teams: 8 in the National League and 8 in the American League. The winner of each league played each other in the World Series.

There were no wild cards, divisional playoffs or other post-season games.

Today, baseball is where the boys of summer play the October Classic in November.

Wow, talk about your demanding sportspersons – and she’s no “star” by a long shot!

Make mine sweet tea.

Maybe a pizza oven, Sushi, and a karaoke machine?

How about a knuckle sandwich?

Players eating during games is of course not unheard of. It was said that Babe Ruth used to gobble down hot dogs in the dugout.

What about using food trucks?

Maybe you should hurry up those mound conferences if Lucy thinks there is time to serve snacks.

You’ll play for the Tigers, Charles.
