Note: These were written and posted to social media one by one in real time during Game 6 of the 2013 World Series. Here they are collected. Go Boston!
Here we are again.
The green diamond takes its place
In October stars.
Here comes the offense
Against this Wacha Wacha
First pitch is a strike.
Ortiz is on base.
What else is new? Naps can’t hit
Fastballs worth a damn.
The key to the game
Is don’t wait til Game Seven?
Wow, Buck, McCarver.
There are men on base.
Chances for a double play?
At least don’t walk Freese.
A wild pitch followed
By a fierce strikeout to end
A scary inning.
Flyin’ Hawaiian
Has American flag shoes
Back clearly still hurts.
Point oh-six-seven.
Now that’s a batting average.
Let’s go Stephen Drew!
Leaving men on base
Is a Boston specialty
One more lost inning.
Obstruction again?
No, don’t worry, it’s just
Jim Joyce’s strike call.
Time to walk Papi.
Molina thinks he’s just great,
And Jim Joyce agrees.
Bases are loaded!
Here comes Shane Victorino!
Oh three little birds
Shane Victorino!!!!!!!!!!
Without exclamation points
Can’t tell full story
Dustin Pedroia:
Gold Glove, almost double play,
But bobbled the ball
Stephen Drew!!!!!
You get exclamation points
Too!!! It’s about time!
The upstairs neighbors
Have different cable; their yells
Give early alerts.
We are in the fourth;
I have to write another
Papi walk haiku.
Wow, so Ellsbury
Calmly high-fived John Kerry
Next to the dugout.
Every little thing
Is gonna be alright, Oh
Baby don’t worry
Two on with one out.
Carlos Beltran comes to bat.
I’m nervous again.
Got out of a jam.
Cards have almost as many
Hits as the Red Sox!
Drew: so hot right now.
Will he hit another one?
Make up for it all?
What the hell was that?!!
I’ve never seen a rundown
The runner escaped.
“To sky”: now a verb.
More Buck/McCarver complaints.
I just can’t help it.
“This is my guy,” and
Farrell leaves Lackey in there.
Two runners are close.
Now a big at bat.
Bases loaded, Craig coming.
Can they strand all three?
NO NO NO NO NO
Was that Breslow warming up?
Absolutely not.
.@DidDrewGetAHit
Appears to be broken now
That Drew got a hit.
Just for the record,
@billdamon pulled out bubbly
With three whole outs left.
Now it’s Koji time!
No one better to turn to
To get three huge outs.
The Boston Red Sox
Win another World Series!!!!!
Bring on the duck boats!!!!
Marathon Monday
Transcended and remembered.
This is our city!
