I am impressed by all the stats that sports mark these days, but kind of feel sorry for the guys who have to notice them. “Another slider. And another slider.” “No, that was a curve!” “Wait, what did he throw while we were arguing about the slider?” “Maybe a fastball?”
I realized later that this punch line might have worked better in my “Cottage & CO” strip because here in “Tuttle’s” there’s the possibility of an armed buffalo being a character who draws little notice because all the other animals have been packing at one time or another.
