Call him Eddie RosariOctober.
Swung his bat ’til the Dodgers were over.
Clerihews, NLCS Game 5
Max Fried
Was in need
Of a tourniquet
Last night, the way he got hit.
AJ Pollock
Gave the pill a wallop
And made Dodgers fans scream
In Chavez Ravine.
Albert Pujols
Didn’t hit it between the poles
But still put on a show
Of knowing what he knows.
Chris Taylor
Like an old-time New England whaler
Salvaged the good ship S.S. Dodger
Sailing under a blue-and-white Jolly Roger.
Gut Check
by Michael X. Ferraro
The Dodgers seemed doomed to go belly-up.
But that changed in the 8th, with Belly up.
Their future’s wide open, like Cooper Kupp.
Will this dormant volcano now erupt?
NLCS Clerihews
Julio Urias
Was all out of gas
Davey Roberts lost his senses
Should’nt have used him from the ‘penses.
Joc Pederson
Lined up a heater and
Hit a homer like a frozen rope
Then had his mouth washed out with soap.
Corey Seager
Was very eager
To have a starring defensive role
Now his team’s two games in the hole.
Rephusing to Phold
by Michael X. Ferraro
These Phillies keep digging holes deep.
The bullpen is more like bull(bleep).
Yet Bryce Harper’s swing,
That magical thing,
May yet make Atlanta fans weep.
