It's Fenway's 100th Opening Day!

Probably the second best well known baseball poem (after Casey at the Bat):

Baseball's Sad Lexicon
by: Franklin Pierce Adams

These are the saddest of possible words:
"Tinker to Evers to Chance."
Trio of bear cubs, and fleeter than birds,
Tinker and Evers and Chance.
Ruthlessly pricking our gonfalon bubble,
Making a Giant hit into a double--
Words that are heavy with nothing but trouble:
"Tinker to Evers to Chance."


I got to see the plaques of all three of those players in the Baseball Hall of Fame.
