Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for April 12, 2011

Sonny James/Charley Pride bringin” it home. Let’s get to the local saloon and get it on-goodbye Bucket!

Oh, it’s PARKER Bowen. On the lineup card yesterday, it was D. Bowen. That was some lineup card.

And look at Chance’s legs just after he released the ball. No pitcher anywhere, at any time, has his feet together like that when he throws. His fastball must be clocked at about 35 mph.

Man, cut the poor kid some slack. I think he’s doing pretty dang well, considering the t-rex arm he’s working with. Not to mention the terrifying lobster claw.

Wow! 3D effects without the funky glasses! Cool!

Maybe I should have tried singing instead of zinging…………..

Duquoin is at a disadvantage since their fielder is using a glove from 1924.

Wow! Judging from the trajectory on the ball in P3, Chance has pulled the old Eephus pitch out of his back pocket.

The DuQuoin Player borrowed the glove from Al-Jo, she uses it to play short stop (April 7, P2). and she plays with a softball…

DuQuoin is a depressed community, ever since the Hambletonian Stakes was violently excised from the DuQuoin State Fair and deposited at the hated meadowlands, in new jersey of all plalces…

If he keeps throwing from that angle, Tommy John Surgery will be required on his right shoulder and guitar-pickin’ hand.

A little Ferlin Huskey, y’all!

But what about the separation of church and state and keeping God out of public schools?

Surely such an overtly religious song being sung at a public school event would have the Milford ACLU on high alert!

Shoeless Joe Jackson just called from the Field of Dreams. He wants #24 to return his glove.

Yes, and P3, is that a glove, or a cloved hoof growing out of Slim’s left arm?

BooRadley56……I think that is part of his Lobsterboy halloween costume.
