Eh, no shame in a bad first pitch. A lot of people have done ridiculous ones. Least you could do is at least try and entertain the crowd with your pitch, so you have an excuse to be bad.
Like my Mother always told me “It’s not what you say that keeps getting you grounded, it’s your tone of voice!”. Watch how how you use that tone of voice Nate.

7/10 strip. Not bad, but this arc seems like a good one.

Yay! Go ‘Dogs! (I actually don’t give a fig about baseball, but I always enjoy when the strip includes a reference to real things in Portland.)

I don’t know if Big Nate will ever be interesting if Peirce seems to get amnesia when writing the strips.

Nate’s next question will be: “Uhmmmm, this ISN’T going to be on television……..IS IT?!!!!”……..

I feel bad for fans who will be sitting directly behind home plate, because Marty’s throw will probably go over the cage…

The opposing team can look forward to a free home run. Or maybe a free walk.

Aw. I wanted to see what happens to Daphne and the seagull. She was OK with the bird on top of Nate’s head. Let’s see how she deals with it.
