Hi Jim,

Yes to your Betjeman tennis poem review - the man was poet laureate, you know! Not the best poet of the lot, I think.
I like the Grogie ode, especially the rake line. The Coleridge parody I think requires a cricket lexicon, which I suspect is larger than a baseball lexicon. More weird names.

Cheers,
John
