    Move the bases further apart.

    We used to sometimes play baseball with one of those highly elastic super balls. The only problem was finding the ball again after someone hit it.

    As I said earlier this week – I think it was on Tuesday – this is one of the rare strips where we see Calvin getting the better of Hobbes.

    That’s why we used a mop handle as a bat when we played stickball. The ball was essentially a naked tennis ball.

    We used to use rocks for bases too. Made the field somewhat irregular, as nature didn’t place them with baseball in mind.

    A golf ball gives good range too.

    Calvin must really be good at hitting that ball. I’m not convinced a tennis ball would go any further than an actually hardball baseball when hit well. Now a super ball on the other hand….

    We used to play with the racquet as well. Everybody got a hit! The bigger kids could hit it clear over the house across the street.

    Sign in the men’ room:

    If you have a short bat, stand closer to the plate.

    How come he can hit a tennis ball, but not a real baseball?

    I remember playing baseball (wiffleball, actually) with a tennis ball a time or two as a kid, and while the ball was definitely lively, we weren’t constantly hitting it to the moon.

    Calvin, there’s a funny round-headed kid a few blocks away who might like to have you on his team. But you would have to keep Hobbes away from his shortstop.

    So as soon as Calvin is winning, Hobbes wants to quit.

    How ironic.
