Once again, Jints southpaw with stubble
Burst the K.C. Royals scoring bubble,
. Â Â Mad Bum’s second shutout
. Â Â Leaves most fans little doubt,
The Royals’ Series title’s in trouble.
Game 5 — Kansas City Blues
by Stephen Jones
Madison Bumgarner,
The Giants’ pitching anchor,
Shut out Kansas City
And made them sing the blues.
Now the Royals have to wonder:
In Arrowhead will it be better?
Game 3 — Royals Shut the Door
by Stephen Jones
Yost let loose his bullpen,
His blue barn of big horses.
Like Ben Hur’s chariot team
They then shut the door
On the Giants’ faces.
There is No “I” in “Royals”
by James Finn Garner
Hey, orange Marlins yahoo,
What gives you the right to
Wear something else than powder blue
Sitting where the world sees you?
You need to blend in with the crowd,
Not sit in garments screaming loud.
So you have a stub — think you can
Crimp our genius marketing plan?
To your Fish you think you’re loyal?
Well, here everyone cheers the Royals.
Your defiance makes the brass see red!
This is America, pal, and don’t forget!
Game 1 – The World Series
by Stephen Jones
The KC Royals got drubbed at home.
Seems the umpire wouldn’t give’em a bone.
Strikes became balls or, as they say,
A quarter of the plate was taken away.
Game 1 of the Series is now history,
But that’s what they’re arguing in KC.
