'86 World Series Game 6, Bottom of 10th...in RBI Baseball

I follow Conor Lastowka on Twitter and he linked to an amazing Yahoo Sports article...about himself. I found it enthralling. This is the article:

  1. My contribution to the culture on this blog. I felt bad about bashing the poetry in previous posts. I wish I could claim this as my own, but it was written by Jack Prelutsky.

    I made a noise this morning
    That I didn't mean to make.
    It truly was an accident,
    An error, a mistake.
    I don't know how it happened,
    But it suddenly was there,
    Filled with great reverberations
    That resounded in the air.

    It made a strong impression
    On the people in the room.
    A lot of them reacted
    Like they'd heard a sonic boom.
    They looked at one another
    As if asking, "Was it you?"
    They were laughing, they were pointing-
    I behaved the same way too.

    I couldn't keep from joking
    With the other girls and boys,
    And never once admitted
    It was I who made that noise.
    Though I'm sorry that I made it,
    From the bottom of my heart,
    In a way, my brief eruption
    Was a little work of art.
