    “Hey batter, hey batter, where’d you get your icing, at the hockey rink?”

    I guess that means he’s a lousy hitter, donut?

    He’s glazed and confused

    There’s a hole in the lineup
    He was tarred from swinging that weight

    Sure, he appeared all sweet on the outside, but on the inside he was empty.

    I am not baseball expert, but I believe a batting donut is a collar or donut-shpaed weight you put on your bat while you warm up. It makes the bat heavier to help you loosen up.

    There’s such a whole in his swing that he can’t even hit a can of corn, let alone a frozen rope (although I say this at the risk of starting a rhubarb……) (For those not up on their baseball slang, you can (like Casey Stengel said) look it up.)
