Some observations on the game of baseball in Peanuts.
- SP – Charlie Brown
- C – Schroeder
- 1B – Shermy
- 2B – Linus
- 3B – Pig-Pen
- SS – Snoopy
- LF – Violet
- CF – Patty or Frieda
- RF – Lucy
- RP – Linus
Everyone rags on Charlie Brown for being a terrible pitcher, but what kind of a game is Schroeder calling behind the plate?
Lucy can throw well, but she can’t catch, whereas I can’t do either well, and would be riding the bench on this team.
Linus and Snoopy, the double-play combo, are by far the best players on the team… when they’re paying attention.
Despite the team’s reputation as losers, they’ve actually won games… just never when Charlie Brown has been playing.
