Actually baseball is not
A game of inches
It’s a game of stiches
108 to be precise
Woven into a baseball
No stiches means
No sliders, curves
Four seam or two seamers
Split finger or fork balls.
No balls dropping out of the zone
No hitters swinging at air
No announcers discussing
Velocity and Spin
Let’s all agree
That the man
(or woman) who
Invented the stitch baseball
Was a genius
Who could put the right
Spin on things
THE POETRY OF THE GAME
