I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT! I COMMENTED A LITTLE WHILE AGO ABOUT IT AND THERE YOU GO! But was that his actual pitch, or a warm up? And does anyone else think it’s insane that this has turned into a three week arc?
….I hate to think that Nate dozed off on the mound just BEFORE the pitch, and is standing up sleeping and dreaming all this…….y’know like that poor yutz in the “An Occurrence At Owl Creek Bridge” story……..
This strip is rushed, and pleasantly expected. We all knew Marty would reveal his lucky skills and throw a strike, and he barely winded up. He didn’t lift his leg(possibly in panel 2) and he didn’t stride. The only reason he threw a strike is because of the fact the mound to home plate is 60 inches and Marty throws straight inaccurate and he probably threw a curve because of the fact it SHOULD be inaccurate. Martys face in panel 4 made him look like he expected the solid pitch.
Also btw who here was sad when the old 2009-2018 Nate style changed to this? 1983-2008 was kinda good with the square head, it was cute but it made him look like a 5th or 4th grader instead of a 6th grader. But what do I know? There’s a sixth grader the size of a truck in the lore.

Honestly, I think the upcoming events are kind of obvious but I might still be wrong.
My guesses are that Marty throws 2 strikes and then the batter gets a home run.
This strip was nice though. 8.73/10 for me

I’m thrilled any time Marty doesn’t screw up. So far we know he can pitch, and he’s a whiz with a frisbee.

Or the ball would have come back to Big Nate’s father and all the clothes would fall off – just like Charlie Brown on the pitcher’s mound.

While a little cruel (see the second panel), I do like the concern Nate has for his father, given how self-centered he usually is.
