Truly American

I could sit in these seats all day
Watching the greatest sport
Anyone could ever play.
The games are a blast
Skip the seventh inning stretch
I just want to watch them play
I enjoy some ballpark food
At some ungodly prices
But I do it because I love the game
Of course I have my favorite team
And I’ll cheer for them no
Matter what.
This game will always be 
My favorite until I die.
Watching the seamless
Throws and hearing the ball
Hit the glove.
How could anyone hate this sport?
I truly love baseball, because 
Where else would I want to be?
