Back-to-back cycles occurring
On two consecutive days — what’s up?
Hasn’t happened in a hundred years.
And homers droppin’ like proverbial flies
In stadiums all over the place — it’s
Exit velo and science-defying distance.
Hey, what is up with the ball these days?
Is it live or juiced? MLB certainly won’t say —
Unless it’s to mimic a Wall Street essay:
“Power is up. There’s a downturn in Ks”.
Brilliant! I’ve been wondering about this, too—especially after the Padres vs. Rockies series.
Not familiar with baseball but I like the tone.
