Revision as of 16:28, 12 September 2020
August Sky is a batter for the Dallas Steaks. Sky joined the Steaks after the Season 5 Elections, when Sky was stolen from the Breckenridge Jazz Hands and replaced with Combs Estes. Sky joined the ILB as part of the Jazz Hands on Season 3, Day 23 after replacing Ogden Mendoza due to incineration.
Official League Records
On Season 5, Day 106 Sky pitched a 23-inning game against PolkaDot Patterson of the Canada Moist Talkers.
During the Season 5 Elections, the Steaks stole Sky from the Jazz Hands and made Sky a batter with the The Plan? Hit From The Mound blessing, replacing Sky with Estes.
COMMUNITY REPORTSThe remainder of this article contains lore created collaboratively by the Blaseball community.
Sky is a stellar jay[1] and known for her prominent Mohawk.
After Ogden's incineration, the team gathered around the molten remains of the once proud marble statue. August flew down from a nearby snow-covered tree and landed on eir mitt. The majestic bird lifted a blaseball out of Ogden’s mitt and flung it with an unpredictable spiraling motion dead over the plate and into the stands. This was the first known instance of August’s now famous signature beakball pitch. Comfort Septemberish solemnly proclaimed, “Takes a licking, and keeps on ticking.” Needing a new pitcher, the Jazz Hands accepted them into the team.
August has been frequently asked by interviewers to give a statement on their opinion of their blaseball-hating brethren. They refuse to comment at this time, but there is a glint in their eye every time the question is asked.
After the Seattle Garages penned a certain zine[2], Sky joined Twitter, where she can be found as @BlaseballJay.
During and after the game of Season 4, Day 73, a frustrated Sky revealed that they grew up in Hellmouth[3], and had some history of bullying from the local birds[4]. They apparently still like Hellmouth despite this[5].
