Hey, I don't pretend that this is a poem.
It is not, but I am a baseball nut, intrigued by strange baseball facts, and I thought I would share these. I have left out the names of the players, replaced by asterisks. Each asterisk represents one letter.

and, when angry, at times throw a fit,
but when all's said and done,
this darn game's so much fun!
