Crack of the Bat Ii

The crack of the bat, game’s invocation
From stadium to sandlot, all the same
Temples to the spirit of our nation
Listen closely, wind whispers ancient names
The greats in attendance at every game
Rejuvenated by the youthful heart
The soul of our sport, true performance art 
Its palpable spirit, real as it seems
It beckons you, invites you to take part
Become the legend on the field of dreams
