Tinker to Evers to Chance
From BR Bullpen
Tinker to Evers to Chance is the refrain of the poem Baseball's Sad Lexicon. It was written in 1910 by notable writer Franklin Pierce Adams who was a Giants fan. In lines two and eight, Adams laments as the Cubs turn yet another double play from shortstop Joe Tinker to second baseman Johnny Evers to first baseman Frank Chance.
