shuck shagged flies
found foul balls
brought good luck sleeping the first inning
minded the park
ate scraps
felt like a friend and seemed to know.
two light brown ears bent like bats wings
white face and chest
brown and white sox.
park home
time game
play team.
shucks panted smiling
never left
go see him there

electricity at sunrise
(established in 1916, the black sox played at westport park near annapolis road and clare street from 1917 to 1920)
