White Sox Brownfield

by James Finn Garner

Eloy was my boy
His power was a gimme
A South Side homeboy
Just like Pico and Timmy.

These faces are all gone — oy!
Ruined, traded, DFA’d.
The advice of Sox coaches, boy,
Should make any player afraid.

Now there’s no joy
At 35th and Shields
Hope is destroyed
At Fill-in-the-Blank Field.

Should we ask the batboy?
Maybe he has a solution.
The EPA should deploy
To contain this pollution.
