I could whine today about how we’ve lost 9 out ten in a rather limp fashion. We get good pitching and our offense comes up lame. The defense has been bad at times, bad enough for that one blunder to cost a game. The offense has stunk. It’s stunk like a dumpster full of rancid meat on a hot Carolina summer day. Pop-ups, strikes outs, clutchless players, and groundouts….geez, it’s been rough. Maybe it’s a team wide slump.Maybe the team is just getting all the suck out of their system. All the hope that I’ve had bottled up for this season, has been thrown around, stomped, and kicked around. What better way to express my sadness than with haikus.
Bitter Old Man
Again seven strong,
but yet again, no offense
Sorry poor old Steve.
Frustrated shortstop
Range is declining
Batting average is still high
Miggi, hit it out
Huff, you kill me, yes
bat glued stiff to your shoulder
slow starter indeed
Genius at work
First inning of game
runner on first, no outs
Sam signals to bunt
Puzzle piece that does not fit
He can’t play first base
outfield defense is spotty
I wish Jay could hit.
Noodle armed pitcher
2004 wow
maybe it was fool’s gold
Wright, where has that gone?
Veteran presence
A weak bat he swings,
defense is bread and butter
Bako cuts his chin
Everynight
Bases are loaded
two outs, and a 1-2 count
Huff hits a pop-up.
Bad times
9 out of 10, boo!
watching games hurt at this time
one day we will win.
There’s no game tonight, of which I am thankful for. One can only hope it can only get better from here.
