l remember, once,

when l saw a game on TV,

they released

a huge flock of pigeons

that soared up into the sky,

and then flew in great circles

around the stadium.

We need something like that,

Chuck.

We have a

surprise for you.

Open the cage, Snoopy.

That's not the same

thing at all, Chuck.

We're the home team, Chuck,

so you guys bat first,

and we'll take the field.

Okay, Snoopy, you're

our leadoff batter.

Let's start

things off big.

But look out

for Peppermint Patty.

She's a good pitcher.

Here we go--

the first pitch of the season.

Oh, how l love baseball!

Yike!

What kind of game

are you playing?

You beaned my best player.

l didn't do it

on purpose, Chuck.

He was crowding the plate.

l was just trying

to brush him back.

Forget it.

l'm taking my team home.

You can't forfeit the game,

Chuck.

lf you go home, you lose.

Don't forfeit the game, Chuck!

l'm disgraced.

Winning a game from Chuck's team

by forfeit

is the most degrading thing

that can happen to a manager.

Maybe you should

forfeit the forfeit, sir.

Stop calling me ''sir.''

Well, manager,

we've lost all

ten games so far.

So what are you

going to do about it?

l think we can

beat this team today.

They've only won one game.

Wow!

The greatest catch l ever saw.

l just know this is going

to be our lucky day.

Hey, pitcher,

hold it for a second.

Do you think baseballs

are livelier

than they used to

be, Charlie Brown?

No, but l am.

lf you throw a fastball

right across the center

of the plate...

...it can have

strange side effects.

Hey, big brother,

someone from the

baseball magazine just called.

Really? Do you think

they want to interview me?

No. They said

your subscription had run out.

Hey, pitcher, l'm going

to bring you something

l think you need.

Well, we lost again, manager.

Your whole team

is ready to quit.

Our season is in ruins.

l've made

a big decision.

This is

the time of year

when all the big

baseball trades are made.

l'm going to try

to improve our team

with a few shrewd trades.

Hey, that's a great

idea, Charlie Brown.

Why don't you

trade yourself?

Hello.

Hello. Peppermint Patty?

l was wondering

if you'd be interested

in trading

a few baseball players?

Well, l don't know, Chuck.

The only good player you have

is that little kid

with the big nose.

You mean Snoopy?

Oh, no, l could never trade him.

l was thinking more of Lucy.

Hello? Hello?

How are your baseball trades

coming, Charlie Brown?

Terrible.

Peppermint Patty said

the only player she would be

interested in would be Snoopy.

l told her no,

but maybe l was wrong.

You mean you'd trade

your own dog

just to win

a few ball games?
