Three baseball poems, "Opening the Hall Closet in February," about anticipation baseball fans feel as winter's end approaches, "Baseball," an ode to the ball itself, and "Grandma's Front Porch, 1950," about listening to ball games on the radio in mid-summer as a child. All three poems by Roy Beckemeyer. "Baseball" appeared in Stage Whispers (Roy Beckemeyer, 2018, Meadowlark Books).
