REMEMBERING SPAHNIE

First we’ll use Spahn, then we’ll use Sain.
Then an off day, followed by rain.
Back will come Spahn, followed by Sain,
And followed, we hope, by two days of rain.

—Gerry Hern, sports editor of The Boston Post, 1948.

There are several fitting appreciations of Warren Spahn today: Tom Boswell ^[1], Ira Berkow ^[2], and Rob Neyer ^[3] all pay their respects.
