POEM ABOUT BASEBALL
Baseball is a game,
It has a Hall of Fame.
In Cooperstown its there,
Getting in is so rare.
Playing in the late 1800’s, 5
In front of crowds that were smaller than a hundred.
Baseball started in a very way,
people need to know how to play.
The Hall of fameis where all the greats are enshrined, (Allusion)
To hear their stories and tales can take a lotta time. 10
To understand baseball is not very tough,
And if you love the game, you can never get enough.
This poem that I wrote is about how baseball started and how the Hall of Fame came about. I wrote this poem with help of my older brother Allan which I dedicate this anthology to.

This poem is describing a fly ball that someone caught. It is describing what it does from the point it meets with the bat to when it lands into the glove. I chose this poem because this is the best way that you can describe a fly ball.
PLAYING OUTFIELD
The baseball drops into your glove,
Sounds like…Thunk!(or Plunk?
or Plop?Whop?)… but stays,
Sounds like…another sunny day,
Dust, sweat shivering down, 5
Clothes plastered to your skin,
THIRST………………….
Sounds like you caught a flier,
The other side’s out,
And your team leads, 10
Everybody’s yelling like crazy,
HOORAY!
water, please…
This poem is telling you of a player that caught a homerun. It describes of how he is sweating out there and is so hot but he still managed to run and jump over the wall to catch the homerun for an out. He is a hero for saving the win. I chose this poem because I like how it show how hard a ball player try to win and save the game eventhough it is unbearable to be outside.
HERO
Hit a huge drive
to centerfield
for an out,
a three-run homer
one handed 5 synecdoche
into the bleachers,
got on with an error,
and almost tore
Joe Pepitone’s
head 10
off
with a line dive single.
This poem is talking about a player, Jackie Robinson, that was a hero for his team. He did everything that he could have done to win the game. If you put the ball in play you have done your job. I chose this poem because in the sport of baseball if you do what you got to do you can win the game.
OVERDOG
Overdog Johnson is a guy
who always wins
but hardly tries.
Pitcher sails it.
Johnson nails it. 5
Whack!
Homerun!
Pitcher steams it.
Johnson creams it.
Thwack! 10
Homerun!
Pitcher smokes it.
Johnson pokes it.
Smack!
Homerun! 15
Pitcher fires it.
Johnson wires it.
Crack!
Ho-hum.
This poem is talking about a professional baseball player, “Overdog” Johnson. It is saying that he is always a winner. When he is up to bat he hits whatever comes in the hitting zone
BASEBALL
Baseball is fun; its sometimes rough.
If you’re good or bad, baseball always tough.
Cooperstown is the home of baseball greats.
Everyone’s welcome to watch in any stadium or state.
Strike one, Strike two, on the way to an out. 5
The confidence is shouting from in the dugout.
The third pitch comes; it’s in the strike zone.
Going, going, gone! The other team moans.
