Baseball Birthdays: April fifteenth

Willie Davis sailed the center pasture like a glider.
Played thirteen years for L.A., taking over for Duke Snider.

Woody Fryman was a portly lefty from Kentucky.
That he pitched four one-hitters proved that he was not lucky.

Ted Sizemore was the rookie of the year in sixty-nine.
Was traded for Dick Allen once, like swapping teak for pine.

Milton Bradley played for eight ball clubs in just ten years.
Was strung a little tighter than most of his game day peers.
