Sense Sonnet - Pumper
First Pitch
The year was nineteen forty one.
April twenty sixth was the day.
The place, Wrigley Field, was begun
A new milestone of baseball play.
First time at a pro baseball game
Music from an organ was heard.
To rouse the crowd there was the aim.
By all accounts the crowd was stirred.
Some legal complications stilled
The organ play on some tunes due
To radio rights unfulfilled.
Lawyers listened, waiting to sue.
Air the Cubs' team song at the time
Would have been a broadcasting crime.
