I Love TIGER Baseball!

“Go Get ‘Em Tigers”

I love baseball all the time,

but especially major league,

and when the hometown players
down at the Tiger’s stadium

are on a winning streak.

Bob Seeger’s in the crowd tonight
(his hair’s as lustrous as palladium)

reminding us that it’s been years and years
since we've seen the Tiger's
at their peak...way back in ’68- ium!

My choice in Pitching?
Why it is Max Schwerzer,
with Valverde racking up the saves
(more than thirty-nine. )

Batting? Now I’m thinking back to the '68 World Series

11 hits including 2 home runs, 8 RBIs,
and our hero

Al Kaline!

“Go Get “Em Tigers!” was the cry

and we’ll sing it once again,

here’s to Mom and Apple Pie
to Baseball, and it’s fans.
