The Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner

Pat Borders on the insane …

"Pat Borders has been called upon to alleviate the Seattle Mariners‘ catcher shortage.  …. On Thursday, the Mariners acquired the 42-year-old Borders from the Milwaukee Brewers for cash."

============================

First went Dan … then went Wiki

Here comes Pat, his skills at best creaky

Over-40 catchers?  How many could there be?

The Mariners cast their net on a fish that stinks to me

    Seattle needn’t worry
    Help is coming to town

    Diane on Memorial Day will

    Don the tools and squat down

    1 is for fastball

    2 deals a curve’s wrath

    3 is for change up

    If she only knew math…

    The manager will hustle out

    To the mound he will jog

    Not to pull the pitcher but

    to send Diane back to her blog

    Brilliant … brilliant … freakin’ brilliant!

    Bravo Mr. McCarthy!

    Yes folks … I will in fact be in Seattle come Memorial Day, visiting friends and playing in a Scrabble tourney.

    However, I believe my handedness (left), excessive height (6’3″) and non-MLB approved gender (uh … female), rather than any lack of catching skills will preclude me from donning the tools of ignorance.
