“The Last of the Ninth for Me”
“The doctor Knows what his trained eyes see, and he says it is the last of the ninth for me; one more swing while the clouds loom dark, and then I must leave this noisy park. “Twas a glorious game from the opening bell – Good plays, bad plays and thrills pell-mell; The speed of it burned in my years away, But I thank my God that He let me Play!” —– William K. Kirk, columnist and author
