Andrew Dice Clay Interprets Baseball Poetry: F.P. Adams
In this edition of Andrew Dice Clay Interprets Baseball Poetry, the Dice Man sets his sights on the famous piece by Franklin Pierce Adams, Baseball’s Sad Lexicon.

- “Tinker to Evers to Chance.”

- Tinker and Evers and Chance.

- And then that bitch dropped her pants.
- OH!
You still got it Dice, you still got it.
