Instead of writing an original piece of HIGH STRANGENESS to satisfy your curiosity, I am sharing a most EDIFYING piece in praise of the one solitary run the Twins are allowed to score in most games. 4 out of 6 since last we talked.

Gather, ye ball fans

As I make all clear

The most mirthful joy

Of our ONE run cheer!

To score runs PLURAL

Cannot be much fun

Compared to sheer glee

From scoring just one!

Teams - not the Twins, no

They love the long ball

They hammer and drive

They score, one and all!

Bless’d fans of TC

How lucky are we?

To score just a run

And not two or three?

That one run, and how!

When we see it plate,

To bed we can go

Needn’t stay up late.

Our run! It’s our run!

It’s the only we get!

You must love the run!

When your teams plays not so very good.
