Nine and a half back on June twenty two

Dodger fans singin the last-place blues

#FireMattingly trends every day

Time to trade Kemp, it’s already May

Too many people actin like quitters

Instead of embracing what I was preaching on twitter

Collarbones, hammys and shoulders galore

Forced us to play guys with negative WAR

I said “Wait for the lineup to finally click!”

These “fans” kept hating, making me sick

So I got off the web and tried to ignore,

But had to peek every batter or four

I changed my bio to a simple claim,

After the team’s 50th bad game

“See y’all at the West title party”

The jeers were loud, and the laughs were hearty

Then a godsend from Cuba got the call,

And Hanley recovered and stopped our fall

Dre started swingin, Jazz Hands too

And luck started turnin for Dodger Blue

Everyone surprised at the run they made

Except for the few who knew they could play

Kershaw making a historic run,

Greinke and Ryu and Ricky stun

Paco and Kenley lock it down,

While Crawford and Ellis continue to pound

9 and a half back on June 22

From worst to first goes Dodger Blue

Now it’s official, it’s finally here

The division is ours, playoffs are near

So to every single fan who stuck it out

Stand for Vin and give it a a shout:

“We at the West party there was never a doubt!”

To the fair weather fans who nearly gave up

Grab a drink and lift your cup

Take this as a lesson to NEVER give up

Sarcastically asking every day

If I “got World Series tickets? They can’t even play!”

Yes, I do, as a matter of fact

You should too, despite the faith you lacked

So even if you were negative all spring

Let’s cheers our beers and drink and sing

Raise your glass for a toast, I say

As we celebrate an awesome, glorious, happy #ClinchDay

To the team we all love

That came back from the dead

Made the #DodgerFam proud

And their opponents dread

Here’s to the Dodgers, our NL West champs,

Their march to October and a World Series chance.
