June 20th, 1973
Trip to Yankee Stadium
(gingerbread shrine In the ghetto)
Yanks vs. Orioles
Stottlemyre vs. Cuellar
Our best against their best
Box seats over right field foul line
(Just 3 bucks apiece - IMAGINE THAT)
0-0 into bottom of eighth
Mom is so excited she falls asleep.
Then MY YANKS score two
Orioles get 1 in top of ninth
In rides the PRINCE
(Albert G. "Sparky" Lyle)
In a blue Datsun chariot
To save the game
Final:Yanks 2 Orioles 1
WE MOVE INTO FIRST!
June 20th, 1982
The day I said "I do."
5 years later I said "I don't."
Where were you then Sparky Lyle?
