Alright, so listen up, y’all. We gonna talk about this young fella, Drew Burress. Folks keep jabberin’ about him and this “perfect game” stuff, so I figured I’d try and make sense of it all for ya. Don’t expect no fancy talk, though. I ain’t got none of that.
Now, this Drew boy, they say he’s a real good baseball player. Like, real, real good. Hit them balls outta the park, he does. Folks call him a “power hitter,” I think. Sounds about right, considerin’ he smacked four home runs in one game! Can ya believe that? Four! That’s like eatin’ four slices of my apple pie in one sittin’, only harder, I reckon.
They was sayin’ somethin’ ’bout him bein’ too short to get drafted early. Said he’s only 5’9″ and 185 pounds. Well, I say size ain’t everything! My prize-winning rooster ain’t the biggest one in the coop, but he sure crows the loudest! This Drew fella, he proves ’em wrong, hittin’ all them home runs and such.
And this “perfect game” thing… Well, as far as I can tell, it means he played a game so good, nobody could even get a hit off him. Or maybe it’s just that he hit so many balls, nobody else had a chance? Either way, it sounds mighty impressive. Like bakin’ a pie so good, nobody even wants a slice from anyone else. That’s perfection, y’all.
- He plays that outfield thing, you know, catchin’ balls in the grass.
- He’s from Georgia, that’s down south, same as us practically.
- He’s goin’ to that Georgia Tech school, learnin’ and playin’ ball. Smart boy, I guess.
Seems like his daddy taught him good, too. Told him to set goals and write ’em down every day. That’s somethin’ my grandpappy used to say, somethin’ ’bout plannin’ your work and workin’ your plan. This Drew boy, he listened, it seems.
They also call him the “Diamond Kinetics Offensive Player of the Year”. That’s a mouthful, ain’t it? Sounds fancy, but I figure it just means he hit the ball real good. Maybe hit it farther and harder than anyone else. And all that talk about “5 Star Mafia” and “Wreck Havoc”? Sounds like a bunch of hoodlums to me, but I guess that’s just what them baseball folks call their teams or somethin’. Don’t make no sense to me, but then again, neither does half the stuff these youngsters get up to these days.
Anyways, this Drew Burress, he’s somethin’ special, they say. He’s makin’ waves in this baseball world, hittin’ them home runs and playin’ that “perfect game”. Good for him, I say. Shows that hard work and listenin’ to your folks pays off. Even if you ain’t the biggest fella out there, you can still swing for the fences and knock it outta the park. And that’s the truth, y’all, as plain as the nose on my face.
So, there you have it. That’s my take on this Drew Burress and his perfect game. Don’t know if it makes much sense, but it’s the best I can do. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on my prize-winning rooster. He’s probably crowing about this Drew fella too.
