Wish that we’d be cruisin’? (Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go!)
Hurry, and hit, yo! (Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go!)
We play:
The season’s bruising and our chances may be minor:
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
The afternoon is sunny; could a day be finer?
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
A swing and drive of the leather into brightened bleachers,
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
A bit unusual, these joyous features.
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
The early blow a solo drive from Caratini,
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
Then break the tie like all the chains of old Houdini:
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
The offense woke with a couple out and got no idler
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
With one more dinger from Ryan Kreidler!
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
The innings numbered six for handsome ace Joe Ryan,
The Astros whiffin’ no matter how they’re tryin’.
An early run a minor blemish that was wiped out,
Then the Twins reclaimed the lead in every moment I have typed out.
No way, check it out, Minnesota’s got a win!
(Had they only been this thrilling when the season was beginning.)
Though the team at large has left us wanting,
Today’s a game we’ll all be proudly flaunting!
A day of cruising, any DUD would be a whiner;
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
Too many STUDS for any simple one assigner.
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
Now send the ‘Stros on their way, a group of frightened creatures,
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
And joyous fans as our manic screechers!
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
In every inning, inning, inning, inning
As everyone watches pitches spinning,
Though every crowd may be thinning,
To everyone, we’re winning!
We have to trust the ‘pen to keep the lead we’re holding,
Though it seems impossible and folding,
They held the seventh, held in the eighth,
Somehow kept the faith among the faithless:
Get the ninth away and here we go!
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
What do we want, do we want? Just a sale and a win, yo!
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
We stay until the ending, though it may be painful,
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
This is the exception: this is very gainful!
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
And now I have to make selection:
Pick a Comment from Chat of Game that had connection.
It goes to falcontimmy
Citing Weaver.
A day of rest and then to Boston,
Such a city one can end up lost in.
A twist of plot I now have tossed in:
I will be there Sunday, a fun day, yeah!
(We hit, though; we hit, though!)
