Luyện nghe bài hát The Blues, Pt. 1

a game worth winnin' from the beginnin' of the inning.
an essential day off since provincial playoffs,
and i'm playin' shortstop, fourth in the line-up,
the opposing pitcher's a right-hander with an wind-up.
and a move to first, throws a curve, and changes speeds.
can be wild at and known to blow the strangest leads.
like the last time we faced him, he one savage
into a loss for his team, and inflated his earned run average.
but today he seems focused and we stuck out to dry
in the top of the first 'cause he out the side.
but in the half, the bad guys came out swingin'.
a lot of coaches like to choose takin' the route,
bringing the big hitters to the plate, and players are purely speed,
and try to runs and jump out to an early lead.
and this time it worked, so we gonna need a hero,
'cause after one complete, the score's 3 to 0.
leadin' off the second, i at the first pitch.
no the center fielder back-peddled to the track and settled under it.
0 for 1 and get goin'.
the ball's thrown the horn and back to the pitcher now.
and all is going for the bad guys, but not so hot for the visitors.
the big right-hander is no prisoners.
he seems to have us figured out, the question is, can we
he's pitching after 3 complete and has a 3-1 lead.

top of the fourth and our hitter makes it to first base.
and here we go, it's the
scenario for any pitcher because he got a reckon
that the first chance he gets, gonna try to steal second,
which he does. so for the first during the mission,
got nobody out and a man in scoring position.
the next flies out to right, but yo word,
that's still only one out and a on third.
so then the number 3 hitter up to the conventional talk,
showin' where he'll hit, but draws the walk.
an old maneuver they made 'cause trouble may follow
unless they get the double from the clean-up hitter and that's me.
the infielder's set up a double depth when they're ready,
but i smack a line drive into left-center for a double, two across,
which just leaves it up to me to do the damage in the spot,
now the score was 3 to 2.
the score the same through five past hits to pretense.
we kept it with a dazzling display of defense.
we had to pull the starting pitcher, the one was left handed.
the of the sixth inning was base runners left stranded
and bullpen activity. but the job is gettin' it done
a perfectly executed hit and run
and what may later prove to be the ultimate catch.
we got a tie game going into the seventh stretch.
