Baseball Birthdays: June seventh

Herb Score had two great years, then his career seemed to die.
He blamed a changed delivery, not the liner in the eye.

Thurman Munson, catcher, captain, always known as brash,
Climbed the Yankee mountain and then died in a plane crash.

Don Money was just average, though amongst the coolest names.
He had a record at third for the most errorless games.

Heathcliff Slocumb in nine years was always on the go.
Red Sox traded him and got both Varitek and Lowe.
