Baseball Co-Champs
Many years ago one spring
I threw the ball around
And had a homerun swing
My coach and teammates found
I was in 9th grade
And made As and Bs back then
So I was eligible to play
And could help us win
The upperclassmen accepted me
And I had a few fans
In the stands there faithfully
Whenever I hit and ran
I took my place at first base
With my first base glove
And I felt in first place
Every time I suited up
The coach decided one day
To try me as a pitcher
And he felt that I did great
With a curved ball but no splitter
That year we faced Crocket
And were tied in the district race
With our pitchers the rockets
Competing that final game
We got a district medal
That showed we played well
But the title we had to share
With Crocket great as well
We got some new coaches
The next years that we played
And we were better than most
But unlike former days
