Me                                                                                                    John  
YAZ  is so GREAT                                                                           YAZ , Number  8
Ball hit so high                                                                                 See the Ball fly
So high in the air                                                                        HOMERUN over there
                                     IN the bleachers , where we sat
                                 When we heard the crack of the bat
                                 ON the FAIR side of the PESKY POLE
                                 Watching the ball arc the summer air
                                  JOHN ! It’s going to land over there
                                    Three seats over, Two rows back
                               Catch the HOMERUN: YAZ just smacked. 

       John                                                                                                       Me                 
Wehave the Homerun Ball                                                             By YAZ the GREAT
