Ballgame Battlefield
 
In light of the game against the Red Sox on Saturday where the leads kept changing back and forth and so many home runs were being knocked out of Fenway Park, I remarked that the game was more like a battle or a war than a baseball game, and chose to draw the imagery up.
 
I first thought of having water in the background, making it almost like a D-Day invasion, but instead went with just some smoke and flak in the air instead.  I wanted to have the infantryman holding a bat instead of a rifle, and having their uniforms splattered with mud was an thought I had while coloring, since it would be unrealistic to have them clean when they’re down in the muck.  I do hope they get out of there before the Boston shell goes off though.
