so yogi comes to that fork
damned
tricky
fork
in the road
& takes it
fork not taken
but yogi
hitting from the right side of the plate
.298 for the year obp .378
30 homeruns 3 stolen bases
(a lot for a catcher)
takes it
and now he's where it's plenty crowded
but so what
who doesn't go there
& predictions are easy
very easy
of no future
now it's
10/8/1956
nice afternoon in the bronx
probably mel allen
ballantine
rheingold
the three ring sign
going going going
gone!
mickey mantle has a hit, drives in a run
hank bauer, billy martin have hits
enos slaughter in two at bats
goes hitless
yogi berra goes hitless
so what
roy campenella is hitless
pee wee reese hitless
jackie robinson, carl furillo & gil hodges
hitless hitless hitless
when don larsen is done giving up
no hits no walks no runs!*
while striking out seven
yogi jumps on him like
the happiest kid ever
who took that fork
* you can look it up
