C.: Take me out to the ballgame (d.c.)
Take me out to Minute Maid Park
Buy me some catnip and crackerjacks
I don’t care if I ever get back (to Earth)
I’ll root, root root for the Astros
If they don’t win it’s a real shame!
For its one NO! Yordon hits a three-run walk-off home run with two outs and the Astros win the first game of the series!
d.: Are you just singing a new song, Cal.E., or you asking me to take you to the game Thursday afternoon?
C.: Both! Come on, d.c. Certainly you can afford two tickets to the next game! I want to be there when Famber shuts the Mariners down!
d.: ARen’t you scheduled to work tonight and tomorrow night?
C.: Yes, but it’s a day game. I’ll just eat enough catnip to keep me going until the end of my shift tomorrow night. Please, please, please? You’ll only need one ticket. I can sit in your lap. I bought a “support animal” vest off the internet for me. They will have to let you in with me. .Just tell them that I’m your support cat.
d.: Cal.E., I’m scheduled to work on Thursday. Besides, the game is already sold out, I’m sure. I’m not going to pay for a ticket from a scalper. I don’t have that much money.
C.: Oh, well. If the Astros lose a game, it will be because you didn’t take me to the game. Just remember that! I'm a lucky cat!
d.: That’s all the time we have for today, folks. Please join us tomorrow for another episode of Cal.E.’s Corner.
