Ode to Matt Stairs



Matt Stairs, at the age of 40, has become a Philadelphia hero with a huge HR that nearly cleared the right-field bleachers at Dodger Stadium. The moment inspired this blog and its first haiku. For video of the HR, follow this link.

Who hit the moon shot
to right? Whose face has gray hairs?
Matthew Freaking Stairs!

This is my favorite. Anyone who can use "freaking" in haikus deserves much praise.
