-let's try not to be unreasonable-

it's unreasonable to consider the game

as running clockwise.

it's unreasonable to accept the implementation

of the designated hitter rule as reasonable.

(in the sandlot game, it's reasonable to refer to

a throw-pillow nabbed from the couch as "home".)  

it's not unreasonable to suggest that the batter's box

at any given time favors one batter over another.

it's unreasonable to think that Nestor Chylak

(5/11/'22 - 2/17/'82) wasn't born to be an umpire.

it's reasonable that 1st, 2nd, and 3rd bases

be carried away at the close of the game like buntings

toward their cribs while the plate

remains on the field which is not unreasonable.
