Red Sox beat St. Louis Cardinals in 6th game of 2013 World Series

‘Twas the 6th game in the series, with all the fans tense;

Would Ortiz homer early, that was everyone’s sense;

No, it was Victorino in form, bouncing one off the green wall;

Bringing in three runs to start, with an eventual Cardinal fall;

But Wacha continued, with incredible throws;

And Boston kept swinging, as everyone knows;

Spectacular defense from Pedroia and Gomes;

Helped bring the championship trophy back to Boston’s home;

And there are special gatherings, somewhere and some places;

With all those Bo Soxes, with their championship faces;

Like Lonborg, Petrocelli, with Yaz and the “Hawk”;

Schilling, Cabrera, and Ortiz all will talk;

Of the great game that’s played, both far and both wide;

From Boston to Baltimore, and to that distant west coast side;

It’s the smack of the ball and the crack of the bat;

That makes us all proud to wear that red B on our hat.
