Baseball Limericks
Satchel
Wednesday, March 17, 2010 by Scottie
Satchel Paige of historic acclaim,
Who threw baseballs as if they were flame,
Through no fault of his own,
But because of skin tone,
Was denied his true place in the game.

Charlie O changed the game quite a bit
Innovation’s not always a hit
The Designat’ Hittah
Put the game in the shittah
If you’re an NL tradition’list twit.
Bert Blyleven

There once was a hurler named Blyleven
Whose curveball descended from heaven
Getting into the Hall
Was all wait and all stall
Currently double minimum plus seven
An A’s Fan

In the eighties I followed the A’s
Bleacher seats and a beer-induced haze
Canseco, LaRussa
Now it’s hard to get used ta
HOW BADLY THEY SUCK NOWADAYS
Number 45

The pitcher – nickname of Gibby
Intimidator? That’s not a fibby
Glaring from the mound
Fastball
Ichiro

There was a young man named Suzuki;
As swift as an unleashed Saluki.
His only true obstacle?
He found English impossible!
But it was baseball or acting Kabuki.
Spaceman
Tuesday, March 16, 2010 by Scottie
Astro-turf was the bane of his days.
The DH caused him endless dismays.
Though a purist of sorts,
He loved grass (by reports),
Bill Lee never ceased to amaze.
Sammy Sosa

There once was a slugger named Sosa
Who could whack it across The Ponderosa
They took his steroids away
And the very next day
He was batting like Omarosa
Gaylord Perry
Monday, March 15, 2010 by SamM
There once was pitcher named Perry
Of whom many an umpire was wary
If he didn’t throw a spitter
To each and every hitter
Then there must also be a Tooth Fairy
Ryan Howard for Albert Pujols
Monday, March 15, 2010 by TheUmpire
Albert Pujols traded to Philly?
I imagine nothing more silly
Plus when he returned
To the city he spurned
His reception would be a bit chilly
