Braun Song

by Stephen Jones

Ryan Braun’s song not too sweet
now if PEDs holds true.
So much for amazing stats.

I’m just not amazed anymore,
maybe jaundiced . . . or just in wonder.

 



2013 NL Central Prediction Haiku

By Stuart Shea

CHICAGO
A brand-new playpen?
That’s just a distraction for
Your crumbling bones.

CINCINNATI
As we get older
We learn to use our wisdom.
What’s Dusty’s excuse?

MILWAUKEE
I’d walk a mile for
A Gamel–a healthy one.
Now: power outage.

PITTSBURGH
Brand new calendar,
Same old days. Same old people.
Same old misery.

ST. LOUIS
Another spring, a
Young man in charge–well, young by
Managing standards…



Bullpen Woes

by Doug Fahrendorff

In Milwaukee
A year ago
Late inning leads
Meant Brewer victories
Ax and K-Rod
Were automatic
This season
Bullpen in disarray
No lead safe
Frustrated fans wonder
What happened
To yesterdays heroes



Homer Most Foul (Deep Thoughts with Carlos Gomez)

by Michael X. Ferraro

I lead off the game with a blast to the stands.
Easing into a trot, I’m clapping my hands.
The headlines will read “A Tone-Setting Hero”!
But … hey, why’s the scoreboard still stuck on zero?



Brewers Sweep Dodgers

by Tom Martin (@brew_haiku)

Game 48. #Brewers 3 #Dodgers 2

Battered team comes through
Ramirez provides the pop
Axford save streak on

49. #Brewers 2 #Dodgers 1

Michael Fiers the man!
First big-league start a winner
pitches seven strong

50. #Brewers 6 #Dodgers 3

Surprising winners
three straight versus league’s best team
rag-tag team comes through

51. #Brewers 6 #Dodgers 2

4 game sweep complete
Crew has newfound momentum
That’s why we play ‘em
