Today’s Game Report, In Haiku Form

Marcum

(Ed. Note: Normal game recaps will resume tomorrow. At least I think so. –NP)

As Spring passes, games
Increase in monotony
So we’ll change this up

Brewers beat Dodgers
A huge seven to one win
Bats succeed greatly

Marcum makes debut
Goes three innings, strikes out three
Shoulder no explode

Aoki triumphs
A dinger and a single
Is never called out

If Aoki can
Always reach base with such ease
What a nice, cheap find!

Schafer, his benchmate
Has two hits, keeps making case
To join him on Crew

Weeks hits safely twice
The hits, they are unceasing!
Weeks’ bat never cools.

Jim Henderson pitches
The ninth, wearing “ninety-one”           
Henderson? Who’s that?

            
KC is beaten, too
Seven runs to three this time
Who can stop the Crew?

Gonzalez bruises heel
Is scratched from the starting nine
The next Wally Pipp?  

In his place, Scooter
Hits for cycle, not a bike
But four diverse hits

Gennett, a prospect
Is short, but hits well, mans
The keystone for Huntsville

Jeff Francouer ejected
I like that kind of spirit
But it’s Spring Training.
