Lio by Mark Tatulli for May 15, 2013

Oops…

…and he’s a head in the count!

Hmmm the backcatcher’s standing just a little too close..

Love the expression on Ishy’s face as he winds up for his pitch…this frame would make a cute kid’s poster…

That’s one way to get a head.

Catcher was hunching on the batter’s box. He deserves that head-trip! Ishy’s “stuff” seems good, however….

Catcher interference…runners advance one base. No pitch.

Brings a whole new meaning to hearing “heads up!” during the game.

Probably not the first time a batter got astrike on heads.

it still bothers me that Ishy’s mouth is in the wrong place

that happened to Johnny Bench in ’77

Ooops!

I thought Lio did not like sports and ran away every time his Dad tried to sign him up for a team!

At least it wasn’t a zombie.

Wanted to do that to a certain big-mouthed catcher a few times myself.

C’mon, Ishy, you coulda snagged that one, easy! (I guess he was a little thrown off— and who knows what kind of carnage was left at the plate…)

never shoulda called him a fop
