These are the saddest of possible words-
Tinker to Evers to Chance.
Trio of Bear Cubs and fleeter than birds-
Tinker to Evers to Chance.
Ruthlessly pricking our gonfalon buble,
Making a Giant hit into a double,
Words that are weightly with nothing but trouble-
Tinker to Evers to Chance.
-Franklin P. Adams (1910)
