Ball Player Looked Like Owl With a Scowl
never desire
a reluctant umpire
fire and retire
had premonition
determined by dimension
what we must mention
fielder looked like owl
who was player on the prowl
on face had a scowl
older was player
who had become much grayer
which was hard to bare
ball thrown was last strike
heard after announced on mike
had to take a hike
after making probe
had an earring in each lobe
while wearing a robe
wages first meager
than became a big leaguer
with enormous figure
