Striking Out a Pose

Gary Cooper and Babe Ruth posing for Pride of the Yankees.

For those of you interested in poetry and baseball, let me steer you over to Barball.com, where my limerick rhymes have been appearing for some time. My default subject is my struggles and frustrations as a long suffering Cubs fan, but I also write on other aspects of the game, including these two recent posts on batters vs. pitchers, found here and here. There's also one on Anthony Perkins in Fear Strikes Out, here. And lastly, one of the many on those laughable, lovable losers, the Chicago Cubs, about the team's new owners, the Ricketts family.
