MMV-The '04 Red Sox Helped Me To Understand Another Baseball Triumph In Brooklyn
For when "Dem Bums" won a World Series on October 4th, 1955, I was only 8.5 Months Old. The Joy in Brooklyn was unmatched anywhere in Baseball, until 10-27-04, when, after 86 Years, The Sox won it all:
The NY Yankees were vanquished in both cases;
And The Spirit of Ebbets Field was revived;
But, in the Glory was Tragedy by Fenway Park, as Victoria Snelgrove, an Innocent Bystander in Kenmore Square, was killed by a Projectile into her head, as nearby University Students, rioted in an Intoxicated State;
But, that was some parade of Champions, in Duck Boats on The Charles River;
And Fenway Park, evokes the feelings of a "Brooklyn" I never knew;
And Derek Lowe was the Johnny Podres, I never got to know. And Papi Ortiz was sort of my Gil Hodges;
And The Ride on The Green Line T to Kenmore? Let's just say a cross between Prospect Park BMT Station and a Trolley on Bedford Avenue;
It was partying like no tomorrow;
Later!
