Aw, jeez, Mister Wilson! You shoulda seen this one! It was the NATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE but they weren’t playin’ hockey, no sir—they were bashin’ baseballs all over the place like it was the Fourth of July!
So here’s what happened:
The Los Angeles Kings came over to Dallas, and boy, they thought they were gonna win. They even smacked a couple o’ home runs—this fella Anze Kopitar hit two of ‘em! Two! But then the Dallas Stars went totally bananas in the third inning. Nine runs! Nine! That’s like when Joey down the street eats nine hot dogs and then throws up behind the swing set.
This catcher guy, Teiji Miyata—he bonked a double when all the bases were full, and everybody went runnin’ home like they were chasin’ down the ice cream truck. Then some other Dallas fellas started hittin’ homers too—Jabiri, Montez, even Park got one. It was like kaboom! kaboom! kaboom! and the poor Kings pitchers were lookin’ like they wanted to take their ball and go home.
By the end, the scoreboard looked like my report card—numbers all over the place! Dallas had 16 runs, Los Angeles had 9, and I think the hot dog guy outside probably scored too. The crowd at the American Airlines Center was goin’ nuts, and I probably woulda got in trouble for climbin’ the fence if I was there.
Oh, and get this—Carlos Molina got kicked outta the game for yellin’ at the ump! Ha! That’s exactly what my mom says’ll happen to me if I keep yellin’ at teachers.
Anyway, now the series is tied, two games apiece. Next game’s in Los Angeles, and if it’s anything like this one, the fire department better be ready, ‘cause those bats are smokin’!
