Reviving the Art of Baseball Doggerel
The Tigers broke out of the zoo
And pummeled the team “You know who”
.   With our hitters on tap
.   And our pitchers with zap
They out-Yankee-ed the Yankees, Yahoo!
A contributor from Bardball’s rookie year, Millie Bovich has been a devoted fan of the Detroit Tigers for eight decades.
They were losing so nobody spoke
No schmoozing, no boasting, no joke
.   From the bench not a mention
.   Just a clenching from tension
No boos heard in Boston, just “Choke!”
Joe Mauer and Justin Morneau
Had miserable seasons, and so
.   The Twins are now heading
.   Into future rough sledding
In the land of the ice and the snow.
There’s a pall on the breeze in the air
Though there’s ball, for the freeze they prepare
.   In Chicago the fans
.   make their long winter plans
as they fall on their knees in despair
Remember the promise of Spring?
In September those memories sting
.   But pros round the bases
.   And go through the paces
Condemned, they must play out the string
