These are the saddest of possible words,<br />Tinker to Evers to Chance.<br />Trio of bear cubs and fleeter than birds,<br />Tinker and Evers and Chance.<br />Ruthlessly pricking our gonfalon bubble,<br />Making a Giant hit into a double.<br />Words that are heavy with nothing but trouble:<br />Tinker to Evers to Chance.<br /><br />- Franklin Pierce Adams<br />narrated by Richard Brundage
