KADLEB = BALKED

Good Monday morning everyone and welcome back to another week of Jumble fun!  I’ll keep it brief this morning as most people seem to be in solar eclipse mode.  I didn’t have any trouble with the clue words as they were old favorites.  KHAKI would be my pick for the most difficult word to decipher.  Jeff definitely hit a home run with his cartoon featuring what appears to be a baseball team owner presenting his pitcher with a contract.  There were plenty of zeros visible on the paper but the player ultimately decides that he’s ready to hold out for more.  The six letter solution was easily visible to me for a fast Monday solve.  Did you notice the team owners baseball field belt buckle?  I didn’t see it at first glance and it’s pretty snazzy!  Enjoy the eclipse and be sure to let us know if you were in the path of totality.  I’ll see you tomorrow!  😎
