'Crack',
A perfect contact is made,
The ball sails with speed limit beyond 35 m/h,
All the way
Cross the fence,
'Run',
...
Shout the crowd,
A Home Run is done!

Fun! And on a Soccer Final, a baseball metaphor is still good.
Fun and Cute!!! In the spirit of sports.. NICE!!!
Home runs are fun! Great 160, Jingle!
Coming from a big baseball family I have to say I love your poem. There is something so profoundly American and heartfelt about baseball. it typifies everything American. I am so glad you shared. Hope you had a great Sunday Jingle!
A measly 35mph? Definitely not a pro.
Thanks, Jingle, you brought a smile to my face.
