Harry Steinfeldt

I wrote a poem about Harry in the book EveryCubEver...An Ode To Harry…It seems only right that someone should write a poem about Harry Steinfeldt. With apologies to Franklin P. Adams, here is my contribution…

The poem by Franklin P. Adams definitely enhanced,

The Hall of Fame chances of Tinker, Evers & Chance,

But the other name in that infield has been lost to time,

Just because Harry Steinfeldt’s name didn’t rhyme,

He hit for more power, he drove in more runs,

He made fewer errors, and when the game was to be won,

They leaned on Harry Steinfeldt, the World Series MVP,

Though his name was a mouthful, depriving immortality
