Stairway to Heaven
Tay Creek and the greater Fredericton region are all ecstatic about Matt Stairs and Philadelphia Phillies making it to the World Series. We are even more ecstatic about the role that Matt played in getting them there with his two-run homer heroics from Game 4. Stairs came on as a pinch-hitter in a tie ball game and swung for the fences, connecting for the winning runs. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Stone Cold Stairs will go down as one of the best ballplayers this country has ever produced. And now the world knows his first love is hockey. So with his heroics that have put his team one step closer to baseball heaven the Hammerin' Hoser has had increased media attention which lead to him uttering what is being called the MLB quote of the year, with good reason. Of his reception at the dugout Stairs said - “When you get that nice celebration coming into the dugout and you’re getting your ass hammered by guys — there’s no better feeling than to have that done.”. I says pardon?
Regardless of that little gaffe I love that this guy is getting the attention he deserves. It gives me goosebumps when the announcers say where he's from. "That's where I'm from!"
Here's a message from his coach for Flashback Friday:
Keep swingin' for the fences Matty!
Pace out.
