The Broken Bat

It was another River Sharks game as we've done before Things pretty much the same in walking through the door Just a very lite crowd as you could sit wherever you want Place never really got loud except after the mascot's stunt Yeah, we were regulars been there and we've all done that We seen our share of errors as there my son and I had sat When a foul ball came upon this day right to his very seat As two twins made their way but then turning in sad defeat Offering the two the ball, my son said, "here you can have it" So cute and not that tall the little pair were shocked quiet a bit Slowly taking it from his hand then running back to their seat I just thought that it was grand in my son doing such a feat Then over came an attendant saying they saw what he had done In the message he had sent they did something special for my son So when the next bat broke then that player had signed his name This is the gift of which he spoke that made it such a special game Now among all my memorabilia that broken bat shines!
