In a shocking turn of events, the governing body of Intergalactic Baseball has decreed that all pitchers must now use a harmonica during games.
This new rule, which went into effect yesterday, has left many a pitcher in a tizzy, with some claiming it's an affront to their artistic expression.
But not us! We've got the scoop on how this rule came to be.
It all started when our beloved team's ace pitcher, Bob "The Ace" Anderson, took the mound during the Intergalactic Baseball Championship of 3056 and began playing a jaunty tune on his harmonica between pitches.
The crowd went wild, but not in a good way. The opposing team, the Zlorgs, took advantage of the distraction and went on to win the game.
In a fit of pique, the Intergalactic Baseball Commissioner declared that all pitchers must from then on use a harmonica during games, lest they face a lifetime ban from the sport.
Our ace, Bob "The Ace" Anderson, is already planning his next move. Will he become the first harmonica-wielding pitcher to win the Intergalactic Baseball Championship? Only time will tell!
But in the meantime, we've got some hot tips and advice for Bob "The Ace" Anderson on how to master this new skill.
