Artist Craig Robinson, who you may remember from Flip Flop Flyin' or the books Mini Pops and Atlas Schmatlas, has been spending most of his time on baseball of late.

There is a distressing lack of Dodgers-related materials on Flip Flop Fly Ball, but we'll give him a pass for the lovely Fernando card we've reproduced above. The entire set is here.
