Thoroughly enjoyed the sonnet, which refreshed my memory of a particularly chaotic time in the history of MLB.

Thank you, Peter — I hope it might inspire you to turn your marvelously surrealistic attention to the some baseball themes.

I would like that, too. Seems more a matter of my attention turning me than me turning it. Hey, the Phils won a game yesterday, so anything’s possible.

Congratulations on the win, to you and the entire city of Philadelphia.
