Twins 6, Athletics 1: Midnight trifecta

June 5, 2025 by Twinkie Town

MLB: Minnesota Twins at Athletics

The Twins will go for the sweep later today!

(lyrics are written to match the Man on the Internet cover)

So late
At night
To see who’ll win the fight
Score fast
Score strong
When Jeffers hits a dong
Take lead
In game
As Bader does the same

With Zebby on the hill
Arm imposed on hitters’ will
A’s could not begin to thrive
‘Til a run in inning five

Now what to do, to clinch up the win?
A solid single’s one way to begin
Just stand together and go all-in:
Get up and play ball!

Now what to do, when leading by few?
Just put your trust in guys who hurled and threw.
Go take the mound and rise anew:
Get up and go play
(Another fine day!)
Get up and go play
(We’ll all be okay!)
Get up and go play ball!
(Get up and go play ball!)
Get up and go play ball!

We got
Bad news
(The Pablo López blues)
A tear
No glee
He’ll miss two months or three
While that’s
A DUD
The rest is all a STUD!

Trust the bullpen getting late
Watch it paint the dusted plate
Though the umpire’s zone is flexed
Their batters all are hexed

Now what to do, to make one more claim:
The guy who gets the Comment of the Game.
It’s norff who makes a pun on name
Amusing us all.

And what to do, when locked down the dub?
Just take a rest and soak up in the tub.
For everyone from star to scrub:
Get up and go play
(Another fine day!)
Get up and go play
(We’ll all be okay!)
Get up and go play ball!
(Get up and go play ball!)
Get up and go play ball!
