BOSTON (AP) - In an unprecedented display of avian aggression, a flock of ravenous cardinals swooped down on Fenway Park, devouring the Boston Red Sox in a stunning 9-1 victory feast on Sunday night. The Red Sox were caught completely off-guard as the cardinals, led by master tactician Nolan Arenado, pecked and clawed their way to victory. Arenado, who hit a two-run homer, was seen cawing triumphantly as he circled the field. Adding to the carnage, cardinals' catcher Andrew Knizner swooped in with another two-run homer, leaving a trail of feathers, cleats, and crushed dreams in his wake. New SS Abol DeJong- also known as "DeDestroyer," flexed his wings and slammed a solo shot while Arenado drive in four more runs. With this merciless display, the Cardinals secured their sixth win in seven games since their own humiliating eight-game losing streak. Perhaps most shocking of all was the unexpected onslaught by rookie winger Lars Nootbaar, who swooped in with three hits and soared around the bases thrice with dazzling abandon, taunting the Red Sox with an almost unseemly glee. This epic battle of man versus bird clearly demonstrated the unforgiving hierarchy of the animal kingdom, with the cardinals exacting ruthless revenge on the unsuspecting Red Sox. Fans left the stadium in shock, barely able to believe what they had just witnessed. "We knew the cardinals were in town, but we never expected this," said a distraught Red Sox fan. "They just swooped in with their beaks and talons and took us apart, like buzzards swooping down on a fallen antelope on the Serengeti." Baseball pundits have their work cut out for them as they scramble to interpret how such a catastrophic feat will affect standings in the league for the rest of the season. As for the Cardinals, we can only imagine what other amazing feats they will accomplish as they head back to their natural habitat, way up in the wild blue collective sports consciousness.
