Peanuts by Charles Schulz for September 20, 2021

Ouch

I’ve heard it said that “there are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics”.;-D

With an E. R. A. Like that, it’s not going by with a mere whisper.

80 runs a game is pretty poor even in Cricket!

And that was poor CB’s run of good luck! :D

I’m surprised it’s that low considering who we’re talking about.

One of my all time favorite strips

Good one, CB…I’ve got to remember that line for future reference!

“The Guitar Don’t Lie.” (Tony Joe White)

Tell your statistics to shut up!

Can’t argue with the statistics.

Hey! Don’t complain, those runners EARNED those runs.

97% of statistics are inaccurate.

But the number of times he was spun around and undressed by a ball hit through the middle went down.

Wow! His ERA has gotta be around a brazillion!

Negator!

Stats can also be cruel. Shame on you, Linus

Perhaps the manager has to have the hard conversation with the starting pitcher…

The outfielders must be tired.

Ever tried tennis, Charlie Brown?

Ummm, are you sure you’ve got those statistics correct, Linus? An 80 ERA seems rather high for Charlie Brown. Seems rather high for anyone but Snoopy on the team. Unless you’re talking about the ERA against Charlie Brown as pitcher, then 80 seems rather low.

But how many bases on balls has he given up? Maybe he needs new fielders backing him up.

I can’t tell you how since links are discouraged and something’s wrong with the normal way, but Arcamax is one way. Find Curtis for September 20.
