It's not the Ball, it's the Game - March 12, 2021

so don’t tell me that

with one out and the bases loaded

in the bottom of the ninth

and protecting a one run lead

if a Black Lives Matter Shortstop

dives for a grounder and shovels it to

a Proud Boys Second Baseman

who turns a double play to end the game

they wouldn’t leap and high-five each other


and take if from me

road victories in the Game of Life

creates the strongest bond

teammates will ever have
