Stankey Poems

The Brat

You know "Mr. October",
"Say Hey", and the "Babe",
Moreover, this player,
is another of my "fave's". 

Although Eddie Stankey,
isn't in the Hall of Fame.
They claimed he was a Brat,
and he earned his nick name. 
Well, he bent a few rules,
then the League said Ix-Nay.
Shrewd Eddie Stanky,
was a student of the game.

Shrewd Eddie Stankey,
saw the game his own way.
The Brat played to win,
and win every play.
The Man was all in,
and Baseball his game.
Shrewd Eddie Stankey,
The Brat was his name.
