Eric Wolff
Executive Board Liasson
Pittsburgh Pirates
|
|
He was born in Peoria in 1969
For the first several years everything was fine
He went to college in the heat of Tucson
After he received a diploma he moved on
He did his internship in Anaheim
Rod Murray did not pay him a dime
After one year with the Padres he had enough
The Friars kicked him out on his duff
The Yankees were his next home
He got yelled at daily by John Franzone
Moving to Pittsburgh seemed like a groovy notion
In 15 years he hasn’t had a promotion
