Have you met the cousin
Of little league’s Mikey,
Tall and fast and—oh, crikey!—
Supposed to sprint, not bunt;
I’d like to introduce you to
Kareem Mike Hunt!

Falls so well line after line, much enjoyed
Appreciate that, Normanβ¦glad the little sprint of it worked for you. πβΎππββοΈ
most welcome
Is he friends with Mike Oxmaul or Hugh Janus? A fun read that caught me off guard at first until I thought oh yea. In high school everyone played that game when a substitute teacher came. Some were on to it right away others never got it and just called roll. But a true story was in high school we had a guy in class with the name Harold Balls and he went by Harry. Good one my friend
Soren, hahahaβ¦oh absolutely, he probably knows Mike Oxmaul and Hugh Janus from summer league. π And Harry Balls is almost too perfect to be real. IπβΎππββοΈ
Some parents have a twisted sense of humor or don't seem to think when naming a child
Baseball heroes what a lovely poem. πΉ
Much appreciated, Teddy. Iβm glad you enjoyed this silly little bit of baseball nonsense. πβΎππββοΈ
Not nonsense we all have a passion for sport everyone has their own, I'd dream to see basketball game at Madison Square Garden. πΉ
Very nice to meet you Mr Hunt and give my best to Tristan Robert Lang, that great poet that everybody loves.
Wishing you much happiness, my friend,
Tony,
Dearest Tony, you gave me a good laugh. π Mr. Hunt says hello, and Tristan Robert Lange is tremendously grateful for that outrageously generous billing. πβΎππββοΈ
Oh no, he sneaked in! lol.
Oh, Orchiβ¦yes. π Kareem Mike Hunt has arrived, and I regret absolutely nothing. πβΎππββοΈ
Mr K.M. Hunt. lol.

Thank you kindly, Friendship. Glad this little bit of nonsense landed. πβΎππββοΈ

Much appreciated, teardrop. A smile was exactly what I was hoping this one would get. πβΎππββοΈ
