Base hits, wild pitch, curse.

Leave Buckner alone.

"Thanks for the site. We all need some poetry to deal with the Sox (I'm an English teacher and both a Red Sox *and* a Cubs fan of several decades; I ought to know)."

Never forgotten

"Consider this one submitted on the 25th . . . I call it "Buckner"."

Superman, you there?
I think Grady needs your help
Circle the earth please.

Grady Little erred.
Even I would have taken
Pedro out in eight.

Heroes could have been
Hendu, Nixon, Wakefield, more?
Not Buckner, Grady
