In honor of Gaylord Perry, whose statue was unveiled at Pac Bell Park on Saturday:
Giant statue of Giant legit,
Cy Young sculptured bronze polished in spit.
Cooperstown ends career,
Hurler started right here:
Gaylord Perry expectorates it.
Thank you, James, for posting this poor poetaster’s doggerel
well done!
should be featured in Burleigh Grimes’ Nursery Rhymes
(but why not “Great Expectorations”?)
