When I played,
my claim to fame was stealing bases;
I even patented sliding pads
Later,
when I was involved in the girls’ game,
I winced every time a player
had to slide in those skirts
We should have let them wear baseball pants
Game 101. Brewers 3, Reds 2
Another tight game
Yeli comes through with walk-off
Seals the game winner
Game 102. Reds 4, Brewers 3
One more crazy game
Yeli with 3-run homer
But not quite enough.
Game 103. Brewers 3, Reds 0
Freddy’s 13 K’s
And Taylor’s 2 run bomb mean
Crew get series win
