Knox and others, with Johnson’s record of 47 games pitched and 346 innings highlighted.

Knothole Ode to Jimmy and the Center Field Fence
A lyric piece personifies a knothole in the center field fence as a loyal witness to a baseball season. The speaker recalls ridicule from tradesmen and lumbermen, celebrates Jimmy’s spring return, and proclaims a shared bond with the player as the fence observes joy in winning and sorrow in losses. The poem blends pride, friendship, and the simple persistence of hope through seasons.
