Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for July 01, 2020

Poor umpire’s wishing he got paid by the hour.

And now for the conspiracy theory … THE TALE OF THE MISSING STRIP!

I guess June 30, 2020 just disappeared, or R & W have been hacked. What happened to the basketball game that occurred in the middle of the pizza break??? Spoiler alert…tomorrow they start football and have opening pool day at MCC!!!

In all reality , what happened to the June 30th strip will be speculated about for years. Was it the Russians , North Koreans , China or was it just some hackers having fun ?

P4 — Open glove TOWARDS ball.

Warning! Warning Will Robinson! Insufficient data! There is an Alpo James sighting. Look for her breaking for another timeout with her beatnik guitar.

P1, But it didn’t bring up the level of play.

P2, The ref, er ump’s head is about to explode.

P3, Do you really think that will help? Time to head to Milford CC.

That umps hair looks familiar.

At least it’s realistic that the hockey ref would get annoyed at yet another interruption. So what is this, is random girl/lady giving the shortstop her glasses to wear? And someone wake up the right fielder. He’s still in his “ready for the pitch” crouch.

wrap it up already. It’s only the 4th inning.

So the pizza wasn’t even in the 7th inning. Whoever ordered the pizza anticipated a quick game. Must not be a regular reader.

Usually, after an unexpected pizza break, the players go on….to their cars

P 4: “…NO!…THAT’S IT!…NO MORE TIME OUTS FOR EITHER TEAM!…get your a$$ off the field and teach him how to play on your own time, sugar britches…”

Vito From Goshen slipped some money in the pizza boxes. The mercy-rule blowout is still in play! Good move Ardis. Get this over.

That right fielder is really feeling that extra-large sloppy joe pizza, isn’t he? She’s going out to tell him not to crap his pants, but it’s okay to hurl your guts out. Her ‘colleague’ is her drinking buddy.

That is too many time-outs for Milford. The VM! JDs should get to shoot technicals!

P1: The fielder is having problems catching the ball because she keeps kicking it away as she runs for it. She’s a mandatory play from the Milford Remedial Baseball League.

P3: If this was the boy’s team, she’d be giving her colleague a couple of wedgies instead of two pointies.

Okay, who the hell is calling time out? She’s not even in the game for either team! And why is she bringing a glove out? And it’s a glove for a leftie too. Did Ardis forget he was left handed? And speaking of forgetting, don’t forget to read today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

Game called on account of “the street lights are on” darkness.

Hit the next person who comes on the field and calls “time” with the taser will speed the game up.
