So if Snoopy is umpiring who’s playing shortstop…..
No wonder Snoopy plays shortstop, Charlie Brown doesn’t agree with his calls as umpire.
Looks like a couple firsts here. First time Snoopy is involved in baseball and the first time Charlie Brown pitches.
True, but given your height, it was still below the strike zone…
Looks like Snoopy is acting as “throwback” umpire, as in the old days the umpire did indeed stand behind the pitcher. The term “pitcher” itself came from the underhand style of throw they used to use, like pitching horseshoes.
Another early Peanuts baseball related strip.
If it would’ve been a strike, whoever was at bat would’ve hit a line drive that knocked Charlie Brown over, and sent all of his clothes flying………
