A traditional Japanese haiku is a three-line poem with seventeen syllables, written in a 5/7/5 syllable count. Often focusing on images from nature, haiku emphasizes simplicity, intensity, and directness of expression.

As the form has evolved, many traditional rules have been routinely broken. However, the philosophy of haiku has been preserved: the focus on a brief moment in time; a use of provocative, colorful images; an ability to be read in one breath; and a sense of sudden enlightenment and illumination.

Winds blow, Murphy out.
With bat and glove, Drew is in.
Fields better than Murph.

Murphy's 2nd or 3rd scratch due to "undisclosed illness."  I wonder if he's been raking restaurant recommendations from Yescobar.
Sorry, I suck at haikus.

Murphy on South Beach?
Disagrees with gay lifestyle
But wants to try it

(I just remembered
This game is in Washington
But that verse was fun)

That should NEVER EVER happen. GAME OVER due to stupidity. Hate when FP defends crap like that.

Ross made several good pitches to get out of the inning and his whole outing gets ruined due to a missed infield pop fly.
