Four time zones apart
Braves embarrassed, Dodgers stunned
Autumn can be cruel
Four time zones apart
Braves embarrassed, Dodgers stunned
Autumn can be cruel
Friday a laugher
Saturday Jensen’s drama
Sunday? Rubber match
Jose Abreu
DJ LaMahieu
And Hyun-Jin Ryu
Are my first triple-header All-Star clerihew!
Ketel Marte
Is a portable partay!
He’ll enjoy your booze
Whatever brand of vodka you choose
Jake Odorizzi
Better take it easy
And resist all that’s there to seduce and shock
On Cleveland’s red-light block.
Paul DeJong
Wears a lucky spangled thong
When the Cards are on a winning streak–
That guy’s a SuperFreak!
Maxie Muncy came up to bat.
Maxie Muncy let out a whack.
Madison Bumgarner threw a big fit.
Put on your swimming trunks, Mad Bum, go in!
Mad Bum and Muncy D
Agreed to have a battle
For Mad Bum cried Muncy D’s
Pimping made him rattled.
Mad Bum thought he’d respect the game
With all of his commotion.
“Not watch the ball?” asked Muncy D.
“Go get it out of the ocean.”
