SPORTS TRIVIA \ QUOTES
Ex-Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher sinks two (2) holes in 1 on 9/11/09
.
Although he won two games for Pittsburgh in the 1971 World Series, Steve Blass is best remembered as the pitcher who suddenly lost his control in 1973.
.
Blass went from being a 19-game winner in 1972 to being unable to find the plate, and soon was out of baseball. Ever since, any pitcher who develops incurable wildness is referred to as having "Steve Blass Disease."
.
But Blass was incredibly on the mark yesterday, sinking two holes-in-one in the same round of golf, at a Pirates Alumni event.
.
"The first one we all went berserk," Blass told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. "The second one, I took off my glasses, and started rolling down the hill like a little kid. I looked like a big, fat bear rolling down the hill."
.
Golf Digest lists the odds of accomplishing the feat as 1-in-67 million.
.
The first ace was a 154-yarder, with an 8-iron. The second was from 175 yards, with a 7-iron.
.
"When I was driving home, I was still so numb, still shaking," Blass said.
.
"It was like after the World Series -- I was too thrilled to get drunk."

CRICKET POEM
(Awarded third prize in "Cricket Story/Poem Contest, 2004" ,
"Cricket Story/Poem Contest, 2004")
.
AN ODE TO CRICKET
.
Oh, cricket is such a fun,
Players keen to make a run
After, forcefully, they trounce
A ball of five and half ounce,
.
With a mighty willow bat,
Swinging it this way and that,
In a show of great cunning,
batsmen bat a full inning,
.
What decides who wins matches?
Runs and wickets and catches.
Bowlers’ dream is a hat-trick
Each side wants the trophy quick.
.
Cricket, game of gentlemen,
Of sportsmanship, true emblem,
Thou can verily inflame
Passions in the name of game.
.
In thy name forget nations,
Inimical relations.
Thy name can thaw up the heart,
And friendly talks can restart.
.
Cricket, hold thy banner high
And, from rooftops, give a cry:
Heartily all of us hail
Sehwag, Kaif, Parthiv Patel.
.
----------------------------------
.
* Written in aabb, 7-7-7-7 format
.
* The reference in the last but one stanza is to the thawing of relations between India and Pakistan in the wake of the Cricket match series, 2004.
.
* Sehwag is the only cricketer in the world to complete a triple century with a sixer. Kaif and Parthiv Patel also made notable contributions.
