    And hit the entire Jefferson line-up with at least one beanball each!

    If I were Carrie Hobson, I’d avoid throwing a no-hitter.

    Mimi, I’m not so sure that have fun is right in this situation. Win, yes. Yeah, yeah, I know you and Gil have had nothing but fun since you shipped your kids off to the sweatshop, but this is a different situation.

    Oh, and Jefferson, you might consider extra padding today and keep those helmets on tight. They are honoring Boo you know.

    In all reality , To add to the fun I’very have Boo’s favorite band playing throughout the game, a drunk I mean dunk tank with Master Bader in it special appearance in cuffs by his Dad, my friend Pedro will be giving back rubs and Mop has turned the locker room into a spa. Now line up for face painting

    Or you could honor Boo by going to the funeral.

    Play hard and have fun…..Mimi must be quoting the sign above the boy’s locker room showers.

    The best way to honor Boo is with a sarcastic putdown of the next person who tries to be nice to you.

    P1 – Okay, I can’t quit staring at that staircase. How many handrails does it have? 3? 4? There is one to the right of Mimi, the one she’s holding on her left, then the next one is either a lower bar on that same rail, or a whole nother one further to the left. But either way, there’s ANOTHER railing at the far left side (coming out of Gil’s shoulder). Does Milford High have multi-lane staircases? P2 – Pretty cold, Mimi. Her big concern about this game is how effective her pitcher will be. Hey, death is part of the game, right? Time for someone else to step up!P3 – On the plus side, it’s nice that Milford went out and bought new uniforms for the girls at the end of the season. They must have a huge athletic budget to get multiple uniforms for their teams.And speaking of huge budgets, Mopped Up Thorp surely has none. But it’s available nonetheless.

    Wait, a “backup pitcher”? What does that even mean? Are you telling me the softball team only had one pitcher on their staff? Are we to assume that Carrie has never pitched before? Another argument against Milford’s “no coaches required” policy.

    P1: Gil staying tru(E) to his word by roaming the halls, looking out for shenanigans. Also assuming that Mimi came from the locker room. Thus, it’s odd that she’s coming from upstairs, as most locker rooms are on the ground level.

    P2: Carrie Hobson cannot be a freshman, could she? Lots of pressure that you might want to put on a senior instead. Perhaps the comment is a backhanded slap to Gil: the lack of development of a tru(E) backup is because the program lacks funding (basketball jerseys, etc)

    P3: heavy moment – lots of sad faces. Could be a bad game, until….

    P4: Mimi to Carrie: Make sure the first batter feels the first ptich. No better way to fire up a team is to get the juices flowing.
