Baseball and poetry
It’s poetry day at Shysterball, where Craig has highlighted this lyrical poem by Jonathan Holden as well as Levi Stahl’s piece drawing parallels between baseball and poetry. Levi quotes Marianne Moore:
Fanaticism? No. Writing is exciting
and baseball is like writing.
You can never tell with either
how it will go
or what you will do
Dave Studeman was called a "national treasure" by Rob Neyer. Seriously. Follow his sporadic tweets @dastudes.
