Limericks: Trolley Dodger rhymes with Jolly Roger

It occurred to me earlier today that Trolley Dodger rhymes with Jolly Roger. Armed with this useless bit of awesome information, I emailed my friends the news.

Tom wrote back:

Clearly this is going to lead to some really good limericks about pirate baseball.

Minutes later, I had composed the following:

There once was a pirate named Rick
Who could run round the bases quite quick
But he’d take too much pleasure
In looting your treasure
Prompting players to say, “What a dick!”

Tom replied:

There once was a Pirate named Chuck
Whose job it was, baseballs to pluck
He’d play as a Trolley Dodger
And fly the Jolly Roger
And baseball ladies he’d…duck.
