Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for April 20, 2021

“Okay. Also, get your hand off of my butt.”

P2: Double play….and a double for yours truly.

Must be a day game…Marty’s eyes can hardly open after last night’s festivities. And his nails look so good, he is showing them off to no one in the crap shack.

Zane was blonde yesterday… someone screwed up their paint by number kit.

Nottingham pays for not putting runner in motion or hitting to the right side of the diamond. On Zane’s curve ball, either strategy would have had a better chance of success.

Oh yeah! Keep rubbing my ass like that and I’ll give you the world.

P1 Did the ump and the catcher wet themselves??? Or is it high noon and the sun is directly over them?

P3 “Yeah, and I got something else I would like you to bear down on Coach”

P1 what kind of lewd gesture is the umpire making with his right hand?

P2 Yeah baby! I’m back, and my sippy cup is too!

P3 way to bear down Zane(y), let’s let Gonzo finish, if you know what I mean, say did anyone ever tell you that you have a fine little tushy for post-game loofah drills?

6-4-3 double play, Mopman calls his shot

Actual sports action, Marty Moon back in the plywood box hungover, shaking with the DT’s, sippy cup at his side, GilPa playing grab-a$$ with one of his players, color – my head is about to explode from sensory overload

In all reality , Coach I’ve been waiting for 2 years ,let me finish and it’s into the hot steamy showers together whatda ya say ?

P4- Zagnut provides “The bridge” to The Motor City Madman, Ted Nugent. Surely it’s not a cameo by Hunter S. Thompson.

If Zane(y) has Douggie Guthrie changing hair color syndrome, what does the Moon man have going on with the (between innings) changing shirt and sweater vest color from green to blue? What the h*ll is going on out there?

Haven’t seen an umpire with an outside chest protector in probably 30 years…Maybe it’s been that long since Whigham actually saw a game.

Gil: That not watching the game worked out so well, I think I’ll try it from my office. Or the golf course.

Do mud larks have red in them? The uni’s look more like prison uniforms ; need Mimi’s touch desperately. “That’s what Gil said”

I’ve always wondered what Marty would look like in living color.

P3- Gil looks like a grease monkey in that red jumpsuit working for Pops Racer.

“Let Gonzo finish up”. Next game it’s Kermit and Fonzi!

Gil and Mimi sure have a thing for their players butts.

P 3.5 (loud enough for everyone to hear): “…DON’T F&$#?<G TOUCH ME, YOU OLD PERV!…..”

P1, So, Master Bader grew up to become an umpire?

P2, Marty tries to count the number of drinks he’s had during the game without much success.

P3, Gil and Mimi share the same coaching technique.

Finish the game before you start with that stuff, Coach.

Zane better check to see if he still has his wallet

Five days ago, Kaz told GilPa to fire up. Today Marty detects a haze coming from the Mudlark dugout. With the sweet smell permeating the air, awesome sloppy joes and fritos are sold out in the concession stand. Happy 4/20 Milford!

The color adds nothing.

Gil has turned into Captain Hook the first game of the season?

Why are we suddenly getting the color versions? Why are they spoiling us?

Ooh, I was so close! I predicted Zane would get a double play and a routine flyout, and he got a flyout and then a double play. He’ll be lights out the rest of the season now, thanks to Gil doing nothing.

Yay for the random color switches again! Now Zane has what Doug had. His hair is brown today, it was blonde yesterday, and it was brown the two days before that. And blonde in the past before that. And for another twist, Marty changed out of his green shirt and sweater vest into a blue ensemble between innings.

And speaking of twists, Mopped Up Thorp is usually good for one or two. Or at the least, a twisted joke.
