Orchardize Em All Revolution Nipped At City Halls Park
In City Halls Park before a Yankees versus Detroit game three park bench philosophers debate trusts and reform. Hot Box Flannagan argues for orchardizing figures like Rockefeller and Harriman, while others cheer the game as a sausage of crowd tension rises and a contingent demands he leave. Smilin’ Worth shatters the moment with six Detroit runs, ending the reform talk as Flannagan is escorted out.
