Values of Alvaro Espinoza are quaint;

Heart turned as motivator for the sport

of baseball since Pedro Gual alongside base and football court.

To succeed as a Major thus outcasts “ain’t”

as player’s strive encourage watchers’ faint.

Begins with play for Twins’ though hard port

then plays as many 3rd bases as a solid fort;

include three-time more shortstop as scratching hard paint.

A motivating decree towards this valued pastime; he went

to World Series ‘95 with Indians past.

Scored by Murray, splitting Atlanta’s lead

but lost, yet still determination not yet spent.

Retired 2 years after but kept motivating, cast

through managing others, experience to feed.
