Ahhh…baseball season! There’s something magical about a new season of our nation’s favorite past time. Throughout the history of our country baseball has always been a constant. Scoff at me if you wish for my love affair with this game, but “Opening Day” of baseball season is perhaps the most anticipated day on my calendar. It’s a new beginning, full of hopes, dreams, and ambitions. It ends the long cold winter, and ushers in a new season of warmth and sunshine in which children play the game, and fathers play catch with their sons. Familiar voices on the radio are welcomed into our homes like old friends, and our cares and worries simultaneously dissipate into the air.
Maybe I’m old fashioned and sentimental. Perhaps my love for tradition and history fuel my childlike love for the game. Perhaps it is the memories of watching games with my own father. Or maybe I’m just excited because my team is off to a good start. Regardless, here’s to another wonderful season of baseball, our American game!

LOL! We guys have this uncanny knack for saying the most wrong thing at the absolutely worst time…
This is my first time to your site, but you’ve got me hooked on about everything on here.
I just finished a class in Final Cut, so I have much appreciation for your cinematic skills as well as your art skills. Keep up the good work, Matt.
Haha! We sure do RG! I’ve been enjoying your comic strips!
Thanks for stopping by George! I’ve been reading through your comic strips as well! You keep up the good work too!
