The best ball of all

It isn’t square

It does not tear

You can hear it call

 

The whistle it makes

Like your lips

May make you take,

A pitch and watch you flip

 

Watch the pitcher

Watch it’s juice

Watch the pitcher

As he gets loose

 

Watch the pace

Now you’re up

Like a horse race

Fix your stirrup

 

Watch the sand

Might be in your cleat

But don’t get banned

After your defeat

 

Take it slow

As time is money

No wind to blow

These days are sunny
