Strike 563
Ah, baseball. The smell of peanuts, Cracker Jacks, stale Old Style in plastic cups, and troughs and troughs full of urine. What a great way to celebrate Opening Day by Stantis with this funny, baseball-themed strip...
Wait. What is that? Opening Day was LAST week?
Oh. Well that makes today's strip pretty pointless then. If he's not going to be topical -- which is the strip's raison d'freedom -- and he's going to leave us with cutesy-poo, asinine garbage throwaway strips about nothing, then why does he even bother?
Comments
Next week, we'll find out that opening day in Prickly City was snowed out, thanks to global cooling! Which has nothing to do with what the treehuggers call climate change, nothing at all.

Is it just me or is Winslow drawn to look like a roided-up Sammy Sosa in that first panel? God, I hope he doesn't go there again.

At least Stantis put enough tought into this one to make Winslow a lefty. But why is Winslow wearing a baseball uniform? He usually only wears clothes to impersonate Kim Jong Il. The answer is, so that Stantis can rip off a sight gag from Charles Schulz in the next frame.
