The Opposition's Stunned

The air is tense, all eyes are focused on the mound The pitcher wipes his brow and looks away The batter waves his stick, his mouth curls in a frown The umpire waves his hands and yells, "Let's play!" The ball released, it makes its way, first up, then down The batter coils and swings; the opposition's stunned Four runs score -- Home run!... Yippie-kie-ay! We won!
