April 5—Get a sport into a poem!
Make Baseball Great Again!
It is time
to make American baseball
Great again
starting with creating a worldwide
baseball competition
with each season
with the national champions
competing in a World Cup World Series
with the final round pitting the
North American Champions
against the winners of Africa,
Asian, Europe, and South America
with the final rounds
best of seven
always held in the U.S.
The other things to do
include rapid expansion plans
including the MLB teams
adopting local schools and colleges
fully funding baseball programs
and only hiring college graduates.
as players.
and making tickets affordable
no more than ten dollars per game!
if they do this,
we can make baseball
once again the best sport
in the U.S.
Let’s all join together
to make baseball great again!
the Birds will battle
zilch in Seattle
Red Sox Cubs Dodgers
no Jolly Rodgers
Post Season begins
lets watch see who wins
one hundred sixty two games
knowing all the players names
follow scores best we can
west coast games bring sandman
we'll watch the standings
keep track of innings
after all-star game it ignites a flame
winners will win and losers fall to shame
Preseason Baseball
two-thousand-sixteen
is now underway
oh what fun it is
watching baseball played
the grapefruit league
the cactus league
in Florida
Arizona
who'll make team
and who won't
get in shape
April
for real
play
scoreboard watching
best part of the year
aren't you excited yet?
