Budget cuts have already kicked in, as Froelich appears to be playing in shoes he stole from after his school job as a pin boy at the Milford Lanes bowling alley.
So yesterday’s strip ended with a mini-cliffhanger, with a bases loaded grounder that someone was semi-diving for. Today, no follow up on that at all other than the score was 3-0. Was it a bases-clearing grounder? Did they string a couple of hits together? Did they not score but scored 3 runs later? Nobody knows since we don’t even know what inning it is now.
I think Marty has a pretty sweet gig. Low stress, calls high school games. Now, he probably doesn’t make a lot, but I would guess he enjoys what he does. He hasn’t argued with Gil in quite some time, so I’m guessing he’s on cruise control, just waiting on retirement. Much like Gil.
In P2, is that the batters box designation behind the batters knee? Because if it is, the catcher is in the batters box up to his elbow, generally not a good idea

Unfortunately, the Milford High School Board of Education will need to cancel the rest of today’s game due to a lack of funds.

Froelich will be knocked down, and both coaches will be warned about any more brushback pitches. Will Gil want Paris to throw a high, hard one anyway?

How about if he throws a high, hard one into the booth? Put Moon into a freaking coma and see if you can talk Paul to come back and call the games.

Everybody lay off Marty. I bet he has a degree in Mass Communications from somewhere.

I’m a little freaked out by Moon’s lack of a pupil.

Yes, bearwku82, Marty has his Associates degree from Milford Community College. It took him 10 years to complete the courses, going to night school.
