Century X - Quatrain 70

Through an object the eye will swell very much,
Burning so much that the snow will fall:
The fields watered will come to shrink,
As the primate succumbs at Reggio.

Object - Baseball
Snow - WS played in October just before winter
Fields - Baseball diamond, that is watered, but mowed to "shrink"
Reggio - of course, Reggie Jackson (Reg-gie! Reg-gie!
Reg-gie!)
