Chicago Baseball A to Z (Part 1)

By Jim Siergey and James Finn Garner

A is for Anderson
A youthful Sox great
He loves flipping bats
Which other teams hate.

B is for Beer
The beverage of summer
Also for Bryant,
Bote and Bummer.

C is for Colomé
Sox closer with flair.
His Cub counterpart’s Kimbrel
With his elbow in air.

D is for Dylan
The White Sox have two.
Will Covey and Cease
Give visitors the “Homesick Blues”?

E is for Epstein
Who helped lift the curse.
He eyeballs the players
As well as the purse.

F is for Fans
(Don’t get caught in between ’em)
More passionate diehards?
You ain’t never seen ’em!

G is for Grandpa
The new boss in town.
Show some hustle out there
And stay off of his lawn!

H is for Harry
“Hey, lemme hear ya!”
Were he still around,
Sure bet he would beer ya.
