His nickname could have been Lord
it seems to go better than Rabbit
but Maranville was quick, no, speedy
so Rabbit stuck and he led his hutch
to the Miracle of 1914 when the Braves
came from way back to nail the National
League pennant, hop on the bandwagon
to the World Series championship – won
of all places in Fenway Park while Braves
Field was being built
Maranville is forever the Rabbit but the
Braves lorded over the league in ’14
remembered now as the Miracle Braves
THE POETRY OF THE GAME
