game begins, this is major league baseball;
right away it's 2-0,
then 3-0, made me flinch.
end of first inning, it's 4-0.
the game just started.
end of the second inning,
the pace picked up,
8-0.
went to bed.
woke for a final listen on the radio,
seventh inning, 9-0
really, really went to bed.
woke game over, heard it ended: 13-0
stains one's impression of the home team,
the good guys.
is the feeling everlasting?
how could it be...it isn't even July.
fall is the big time,
and always, always there is hope again next season.
cancel, cancel
second game the following day against the same bottom ranked
Baltimore Oriels and our hometown heroes lose again
by the identical score 13 - zero.
but i write more. these are the golden boys of summer who two years ago in 2017 won a record setting 22 games in a row.
now Rocky Colavito is touring with his book. in 1959 when i was 14 and routing for him he was Cleveland's outfielder and hit an amazing four home runs in one game.
gee the seasons change,
yet they do go on.

It's awesome to pay a visit this web page and reading the views

This design is steller! You obviously know how to keep a reader amused.
Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost...HaHa!) Great job.
I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it.
Too cool!
I really like your blog.. very nice colors & theme.
Did you create this website yourself or did you hire someone to do it for you?
