Day 288: Baseball Haikus – Angels at Yankees 6/30/2021

Trying to warm up
The paparazzi follows
No moments alone

Master of the mound
Blasts moonshots almost nightly
Shohei Ohtani

Top of the 2nd: Angels 2, Yankees 7

It fell apart quick
Walking everyone in sight
He’s already out

******************

Panic setting in
Drunk dude yelling in my ear
Eyesight gets blurry

Bottom of the 2nd: Halos 3, Bummers 7

The panic subsides
As he stops to talk to girls
Relief for my ears

Their Row One Seat One
Belongs to a chain-link fence
Yet it’s still “my seat”

Darker clouds looming
The air quickly turns cold
Rain is a-coming

*****************

Open up, it did
It gave torrential downpours
We’re instantly soaked

*****************

Instant rain delay
While we struggle to exit
Breaking fire codes

*****************

Can’t find my way out
The hallways are like mazes
Designed by assholes

Empty train car home
The luxury of leaving
In the 3rd inning

Final: Angels 11, Yankees 8

1:30 AM
Stomach full of Taco Bell
I’m glad to be home
