Written for contest, prompt bats.

Chilling air across the few singing stadiums.
The National Anthem rings cross the land.
The national past time in spotlight.

The umpires crying "Play Ball" sound the nation.
The kings gather round for October's showcase
Swinging their bats for the stands.

The perennial show entertains in the millions.
Beer fights chills as fans sit enthralled
Watching the game with breathtaking awe.

Who will be the king of kings to end the year?
A case of Heineken backs me up again,
The Yankees will reign surpreme.
