I like this post.  I know so little about classic baseball history.

      <![CDATA[@4, I dunno what you know about what, but your analysis of this bit of doggerel is 100% correct. The Hall is full of guys like this, all voted in by 90 year old guys who remember their buddies. Some day their modern equivalents will vote in Omar Vizquel -- the man Bill James famously called "the greatest player in the history of baseball...named Omar".

      <![CDATA[@3 The Brothers K is an OK book, but not worth mentioning in relation to this poem.  As for Adams as the author, yeah, the ART is not my area of literary expertise.  Maybe I'll post a Nelson Algren baseball poem when it seems apropos.  And I know this comment was by a Seattleite due to its provincial judgmentalism.  Probably still pining for the Pilots, eh?  Cubs beat 'em today.
