Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for April 12, 2023

They’ll probably still call a foul, but yeah, that was awesome!

Foul… uh… plate?

right into Marigold’s head.

now she has to be ejected, that’s how it works.

some game, isn’t it?

Usually they just throw their bat. Clearly, that wasn’t interesting enough for Phoebe.

Phoebe has an admirer!

I was hoping for more of a tantrum. Maybe use the bat to hit home plate?

“Looks like she said one of those words the umpires don’t like to hear…”

Bull Durham (which much of this strip’s readership is probably too young to watch…)

Reminds me of when Earl Weaver stole a base in 1963. Took it back to the dugout, refused to give it back.

Max and Phoebe are going to be an couple someday. They get along really well

that third panel needs some motion lines

Phoebe is learning how to give to the public what it wants.

More like tossing a pentagonal Frisbee.

Recall that the first thing we saw Phoebe do was skip a rock.

I’ve seen baseball managers steal and throw bases before, but never home plate.

this ep was prolly based on a true story

Phoebe has experience throwing rocks, so this doesn’t surprise me.
