can he reach?will he stretch?

[Flighted Iron]

baseball is here
 roses almost in bloom
 duckpin town
 or the NY crew
 hope the AL EAST
 makes a boom

 the turf the dirt
 the bounce the lip
 the wide into first
 the extra bases trip
 

 the fans the cheers
 hijacked bottle man the cold beers
 the food the chalk line
 twenty just less every time

 seventh inning stretch the batter is late
 one man on went ahead in the eighth
 the parked car the glorious hike
 a smart pitch, third called strike
