Surprised no one's mentioned one of my favorites, Paul Stookey's "Right Field" -- coincidentally, the story of my brief, unremarkable career in Little League. You put the least talented fielder out in right because, as Stookey says, "Little Leagues never have lefties who pull."

FWIW, there's also "Willie, Mickey and the Duke" (by Tommy Hart, I think). Not exactly a folkie, and unfortunately cheapened by the author's frequent bald-faced commercialistic sell-out remakes of the song, but what the hell -- the original is still a good song. Like I said, FWIW.
