Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for May 30, 2018

Uh-oh! I’m afraid we’re in for a week of gloating!

Good job nate, Now time to run…

Why do I get the feeling that this will end with a nose-boop tag at the plate a la Charlie Brown?

the baseball then hits Jenny in the bleachers

Has he ever gotten a hit before? Does he know what to do now?

YES! Great job Nate! Woooo!

Much better form for the hit.

Use the Force, Nate. Release your conscious mind, and act on instinct. Trust your feelings.

The Cardinals have a few players going through that this season!

My opinion: similar to the soccer game versus Jefferson, this strip might benefit if we saw more of a Nate not making hits before he finally got a hit

If you look at the swinging line with the motion of the bat you can see that Nate hit the ball with the tip of his bat.

Did anyone else die of laughter at Nate’s face in the last panel?

And Nate’s friends nightmare begins.

So much for a punch line in this one, who knew hitting the ball would be such a dud.

RERUNS!!!!!!!

…because of that…

The first one would have been a ball if he hadn’t swung

Looks like a wood bat tournament
