Carlos Gomez: The Poet of Minnesota II

Carlos Gomez of the Twins, the poet-to-be-named in the trade that sent Johan Santana to the New York Mets, penned this gem after hitting for the cycle on a dreary, rainy evening in Chicago.

Bunt My Ass

When I go to hit,
I think I hit bunt.
And I say,
No, no, no, no.
You can do it.
You can hit a base hit off this guy.

I say
Go swinging.
Go hacking,
And when I hit the ground ball,
I close my eyes and I run
And when I see the pitcher drop the ball,

I say,
You got it!
You got it!
