after "DVNO"
Dig. First the right foot, then the left.
Pick your spot. Left field or right.
The center fielder is too fast.
Pick your pitch.
Single into a double; up,
if you dig. Hear it in your head
before you hear it in your hands
and your hands scream
dig! There is no time
to see the short stop's
leap, hard left. Flat footed.
Dig. Straight through first,
an arrow of light
spat from God's mouth.
First base coach
patting your left shoulder,
seventh inning dust in it's wake
is good enough for me.
