Reviewing, consolidating, concluding . . .

There once was a guy named Altuve

With a swing that was perfectly groovy.

He liked playing ball

But that wasn’t all

He sold groceries in short TV movies.

He and friends Carlos and George

Drew viewers increasingly large.

So Alex, their buddy,

Became a new understudy

To give their sales efforts a charge.
