The World Series

The pitcher went to the mound and threw out the ball,

Ryan Howard stepped up to the plate and gave it his all.

He thrusted his bat forward with great strength and power,

This was, by far, Philadelphia's greatest hour.

The Phils were playing good; they were doing really well,

Especially under the management of Charlie Manuel.

Since 1980, the Phillies have been trying,

But today's there's no doubt with the Flyin' Hawaiian.

The city's been waiting for years, months, and days,

For the moment we'd finally beat the Tamps Bay Rays.

Jason Werth hit the ball, and he hit it far,

But it was Cole Hamels who went home with a new, shiny car.

However, the most beautiful and gorgeous face,

Belongs to number 26, a man named Chase.

When that game came to an end, the fans jumped up and made noise,

The Philadelphia Phillies are the best, all thanks to the boys.

The city was filled with happiness and bliss,

And Jason Werth blew Mrs. D a nice big kiss.

After the parade was over the players went back to the park,

That's when Utley stood up and made his infamous remark.

What a year this was, year 2008,

What happens next season? The city can't wait.
