Journey Through the Minor Leagues

Summer arrives and the Brooklyn Cyclones are 
in first place
Saw them the other day and they won in twelve(!)
Just spoke  to a friend 
who wants to see the Staten Island Yankees play 
Another A - Division team 
Some fans won't go to see a minor league game
I think they are missing out 
When in Puerto Rice I saw the San Juan Senators 
play the Ponce Lions
A band in the stands and liquor being served as well
Didn't need any intoxicants  - the green field, the cheerleaders 
and the frozen ices and hotdogs along with the battle 
were enough to sustain me during the hot New York City summer
