Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for April 01, 2023

With that many coils, it’ll be hard to quickly drop the bat.

Now batting: Marigold’s tail!

so when Marigold hits the ball, does she start running around the bases in the direction she is facing (counterclockwise)?

A prehensile tail is quit useful. Although, I thought it strange that Abu, the monkey in Aladdin, had a prehensile tail. That’s a new world monkey trait. How did a new world monkey come to be in Agrabah?

Either hit the flies with the bat, or start using an oversized flyswatter instead of a bat to hit the ball.

I don’t know about hard, but it will make it painful…

If it works…!

I hesitate to think of where that ball might end up if she misses. ;-)

Never seen THAT before..

Oh, I dunno—I think you could really show that pesky fly what-for with this arrangement. :P

She could also stick the bat on the end of her horn and shake her head to swing.

What is the actual infield fly rule?

And more painful if she misses and hits herself

This will end well.

She’s a little confused but she’s got the spirit

I think Phoebe still misses her goblin tail.

Her tail doesn’t look strong enough to swing fast.

Oh so that’s how they use the bat in unicorn baseball.

yeah it would be like trying to hit flies with a sledgehammer.

And they must have great eyesight or bodily awareness to be able to turn themselves enough to hit the ball with their hind end.

I wonder if the flies are attracted to unicorns because they can get unpleasantly smelly or sweaty like horses sometimes do, or is it because unicorns instead smell sweet and it attracts them that way?.

this is the first time i remember mG has a spiral grip tail technique…
