A plumbing obstruction
Can cause a disruption
In anyone’s schedule
But if there’s a wedge you’ll
Be happier–lots–
If the stuffled-up spot’s
In the bowl where you sit,
Not the hole where you shi–
-ver and quiver and quake
Then decide that the trip
To that seat’s a mistake.

Obstruction

A 4-4 game, the Series tied at 1,
The bottom of the ninth, two on, one out.
Pedroia snags Jay’s grounder, saves a run
By throwing out Molina. Big? No doubt.
Saltalamacchia, the catcher, spies
A chance to turn a 4-2-5 DP
And throws to Middlebrooks at third, whose eyes
Go wide as Jarrod’s throw; he dives, but he
Cannot corral the ball. The runner, Craig,
Instead of being out, then makes the turn
And heads for home, but stumbles as his leg
Collides with Middlebrooks…and so we learn
The reason Boston’s down 1-2 today:
Obstruction, per Rule 7.06(a).
