30 Ways to Say, October

As April charges forward
And March falls away
These Colors never looked brighter
On a field that says Opening Day

From training in the spring
And moves made in the fall
We all stand at attention
When we hear the words Play Ball

The diamond covered in dirt
Shines all through the night
As nine men go out
To reignite their fight

The wins that we’ll remember
And the losses we choose to forget
Are etched into the leather
As scars upon a well-worn mitt

Seasons come and pass
But the names are carved in stone
As victors of the summer
One team will stand alone

As the season begins anew
And the wait is finally over
Each and every fan is given
30 ways to say, October
