Sid At Bat

 

Sid glared at the pitcher,
With an angry stare,
"You better throw your best pitch,
Or I'll hit it outta here!!!"

The pitcher held the hard ball,

"We'll see what you can do,
With my Super-Curve ball,
Sinker-Slider Two Times Two!!!"

2 X 2

 

Sid giggled like a laugher,
"Let's go then...Let's play ball!!!
I'm gonna hit your best pitch,
Over that-there wall!!"

 

The ball it came a flyin'
It looked just like a pea,

Sid swung and missed the ball so bad,
He fell down to his knee...

The pitcher cracked a smile,
It wasn't very fair...
Sid couldn't believe that all he'd hit,
Was the cool breeze in the air...

"I hope that was your joke pitch,
I hope that ain't your best,
If you throw that pitch again,
I'll lay it out to rest!"

The pitcher stared for signals,
The catcher called the call,

The pitcher pitched the next pitch,
Sid waited for the ball...

The baseball danced so slowly,
A curve from outside in,
Again, Sid swung and missed the ball,
Would he ever win???

The pitcher chucked a chuckle,

The catcher giggled too,
The umpire also laughed and said,

"I believe that'd be Strike-two!"

Sid looked up at his old coach,
Standing down the line,
Got his signals and then he screamed,
"This one is all mine!!!"

The catcher set the target,

The pitcher threw the ball,

The bat was swung by Sid real hard,

This time he got it all!"

 

Sid saw the ball go flying,
Way into the sky,
No one ever saw a ball,
Hit so very high.

The pitcher quit the game,
The catcher felt so blue,
As Sid ran all the bases,
His team won 3 to 2!!!

The fans they all went crazy,
A curtain-call for Sid,

He tipped his hat and took a bow,
The amazing kid!!!

"Sid your dinner's ready,"
He heard mom from the hall,
He put his bat back on his bed,
But took his homerun ball...
