1, 2, 3, Charge!

For Allan

Strat-o-matic, seeming serious,
was aut-o-matic joy
for a young boy
playing Richard in the World Series.

Houston against Chicago

Game 1:
Clemens’ pitching arm
was itching to disarm
Chicago’s score
just to be sure,

Game 2:
Oswalt followed through
in game two,
but lost, with great shame,
due to Buehrle fame,

Game 3:
Miller made the move,
got the team back in the groove,
driving home a win
of which Chicago could not know the kin,

Game 4:
Clemens came back in a flurry,
giving Garcia reason to worry,
and homeruns of Bagwell
is why Chicago fell,

And, with game 5 Pettitte had
help from Kent, glad
of a one-hit shutout,
making Houston the winner, no doubt.

Score: 4 - 1
