Baseball and Women

Baseball and women To me much the same I cherish them both For the love of the game But when I’m up to bat I don’t always swing For the pitches I get Are not always my thing And I’m not opposed To a free base on balls I’d have to be stupid To argue those calls I don’t swing for the fences I’m no long-ball hitter But when it comes to these games I’m not any quitter No, I’m quite content To just reach first base I think slow and steady Is my natural pace Yes, women and baseball Are so much the same I’d be honored if voted In their Hall of Fame

Clever and amusing write. Being English, I don't follow baseball, but I certainly get the gist of your poem!
