Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for August 31, 2011

Deja vu! When I was in Little League, my best pitch was my slurve. Then again, my only pitch was my slurve.

I wonder if you can actually throw that pitch Nate! I don’t think Chad has anything to worry about.

hmmmmmmmmmm where is sparkbell and craig…… those slackers! ha ha

i dont know anything about baseball [hockeyfan] but i do know about kickball! chad has alot too worrry about

Enjoy it boys, I was never able to play baseball, my mom would just say, you will just get hurt.

Agreed… Nate should’t be throwing a curve, but a slurve? who knows? Some years ago, heard a radio interview with Indians great Bob Feller, and he was asked how old he was when he threw the curve. He realized it was a trap, as the age now is more like 15-16, so he said, “You can’t use ME for an example on THAT. I grew up on a dairy farm, milking cows by hand, and I had forearm strength kids now can’t even dream of.”As for the question at hand: Chad, sit still, and watch the ball cold-cock the ump.

The indefatigable Mr. Peirce is in Kansas City today!

Wooo!

I used to throw a heavy spit ball. I used a goober on it.

I think heck is about to break loose when Nate’s around

maybe he cant

Be brave Chad!

My team mates used to love when I tossed my moss covered three handled family gredunza across the plate….

On second thought, Nate’s coach will probably be sporting a lump on his head, not the ump. The ump would be a pretty straight throw.

I’m a catcher and it’s EASY!

sorry guys but im not doing any more carl craig comix anymore.

say bye bye to your stomach,chad.

mwahaha i am a fake

i want my sizeman………………

I wish there was a back to school storyline instead of this baseball one.

Do you guys mind deleting the comments about Sizeman? I really don’t want you guys to talk about it on here. Go on my blog if you want to but please delete your sizeman related comments.

Isn’t Francis catcher, and Chester pitcher, and mate right fielder
