Sheffer Puzzle 6/24k (!)

You make my heart sing mild
cud chewers that we are. She
watches baseball players chew
from mounds and outer fields
as from the Sound salty odor
seeps into stale Cracker Jacks
caw shadows across Jumbotron
another catch botched in haze
yet another coach scrapped.
Take me out to the ball game
seventh inning what else to do
Screen blinks NOISE!, we yell
approaching train horn blasts
jets rumble from above clouds
gods at nine pins, Moose dance
on dugout roof in the land of
war canoes, evening sun aura
slanting across the stands, bus
brakes on Fourth Avenue South,
ahoy, we cry, ye Mariners.
