The Argument

This weekend game proposes, first in brief, the outcome of the Saturday game, pitting the powerful Dodgers of Paradise against the sea creatures of Florida, depends primarily on the starting performances of associates of both legions. Amidst forecasted thunderstorms the two sides will do battle, their chief leaders named as Torre and Gonzalez, issuing their numbers into combat with the hopes of regaining bearing toward postseason baseball and eternal praise with a world series victory and coronation.

f the
Dodgers' second series game, and the fifth
Of this short road trip, where opinions
Both public and media are certain
To be reflect'd by one contest's outcome.
Sing, heavenly muses, from your press box,
The wandering path of Eric Milton,
Whose replaced ligaments and nomadic ways
Have result'd in an uncommon rebirth.
Herald his pitching and hasten his fastballs
As he musters his courage for battles ahead.
Whilst th' infernal slippery marlins
Of Floridian coasts and empty stadium,
Revolt soundly against the legions
Of divine Dodger bats and gloves.

Darkness within Dodger hearts, illumine;
What spirits low, raise and support,
And rescue our souls from defeat and despair
Whilst we vanquish our enemies to bottomless perdition.

And possibly even afford a smooth ninth frame,
Is that too ambitious for followers to request?
