Twelve Days of Christmas: Day 12
On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me
Twelve playoff runs (per 27 outs) creating+,
Eleven wins a-sharing,
Ten titles winning,
Nine “experts” foiling,
Eight zeroes hurling,
Seven feats achieving#,
Six years extending,
Five records set*,
Four slamming birds (1, 2, 3, 4),
Three home runs,
Two golden gloves,
And a new park in the city.
Merry Christmas, Cardinal fans, and, thanks, Cardinals, for the numerous gifts of 2006.
+Actually, So Taguchi created 12.16 runs per 27 outs during the playoffs.
