Baseball's Sad Lexicon circa 1910
These are the saddest of possible words:
"Tinker to Evers to Chance".
Trio of Bear Cubs, fleeter than birds
"Tinker to Evers to Chance".
Flawlessly bursting our gonfalon bubble
Making a Giant hit into a Double
Words that are weighty with nothing but trouble
"Tinker to Evers to Chance."
These are the sweetest of possible words:
"Jeter to Knobby to Tino".
Trio of Yankees, fleeter than birds
"Jeter to Knobby to Tino".
Ruthlessly bursting their opponents' bubble
Turning a rally into just rubble
Words that are weighty with nothing but trouble:
"Jeter to Knobby to Tino."
