Jay comes from a family who is very involved in sports. So as he was singing the childhood clean up and going through and sorting the football pads, softballs, baseball, batting and fielding gloves, sweet bands, and other athletic equipment and sports wear he came across a recognizable object. It was his old bat. The Bat he used in little league almost 10 years ago. This was the first bat that Jay ever had.

    Sir Donald Bradman, born in 1908, is the most renowned and respected of Australian cricketers who, although of retiring demeanour, attained heroic stature in the interwar period and captained Australia in test matches against England from 1936 to 1948. He represents an era, long gone, when sportsmen were gentlemen and the love of a game, not dubious 'star' status and huge financial rewards, was the inducement to play. In this way, too, he represents an Australia that has now receded into the romantic past, when the kind of man he was and the principles he espoused embodied a unified nation's beliefs about itself an understated confidence, even in hard times, a sense of fair play and a simplicity (sophisticates, today, would say 'a simplemindedness) about life and its purposes. The affection of that society for Bradman was enunciated in the opening phrase of the popular song that was written about him: 'Our Don Bradman'. Foulcher recalls the cricketer's reputation, in this poem, and subjects it to his keen poet's scrutiny. 'Bradman's last innings' is framed by the event commemorated in the title - Bradman's last appearance at the crease, and the irony of his unceremonious dismissal, on that occasion, without a single run to his credit: Bowled for a duck, you could have asked for better.... At the end of the poem, the experience of his last match is more bitterly registered four runs short of that century / average, at the last, betrayed by your own game - as the cruel summation of a brilliant career. Between, Foulcher sketches the great batsman's life in the context of its significance in Australian history and the momentous national and world events of the earlier part of this century. In making these connections, the poet indicates the national and international renown of Bradman in these tumultuous years.…

    The South won the Civil War. History says that the North won but in my opinion that is not true. The North won the fighting but what were they fighting for? They were fighting to end slavery. They did not achieve this goal. Yes, slavery was legally abolished but it started right back up again in other forms. First there was sharecropping. Than Confederate soldiers took office. That only made matters worse. Then after they took office they managed to pass Jim Crow laws and Black Codes. The South definitely won the Civil War.…

    The poem “bradman’s last inning” written by John Foulcher shows many readers that we are often prone to failure and disappointment. John Foulcher shows this through the use of second person in the first line “you could have asked for better...” which is addressed directly at Bradman and suggests the affinity many people had for him. Also in the same sentence John uses an ellipses at the end of “better...” The use of the ellipses is expressing the sympathy for Bradman on his disappointment for being bowled out. Additionally John uses a list in the third stanza giving a sense of order as opposed to the chaos and confusion during the depression. Furthermore John uses personification in the last line “betrayed by your own game” suggesting the emotional involvement of Bradman, positioning him as more than just a winner but a ‘hero’ excluding the fact he was bowled for duck. John’s uses of these techniques clearly show the audience that we are all often prone to failure and…
