    Thanks. I will ALWAYS listen to this song!
    You might enjoy “The Baseball Project”
    Its “1976” is a tribute to Mark Fydrich & his rookie year.

    Also Largehearted Boy [ http://www.largeheartedboy.com/blog/archive/2009/09/daily_downloads_2047.html ]
    offers a couple of still-live links to two steve wynn classics; scroll down to:
    “The Yankee Flipper” and
    “Ted F*cking Williams”, which goes down as one of my other favorite baseball songs, right up there with Goodman’s.
    (Wynn is part of the baseball project.)

      J,
      You are most welcome!!

      I downloaded four songs from The Baseball Project and also went and got the Steve Wynn songs. The Ted Williams one reminded me how he hit a home run at his very last at bat before retirement but refused to acknowledge the fans. He was decidedly arrogant.
