It's the 9th Inning, the Finale to the Series, and I am expecting a Walk-Off Home Run!
A couple of thoughts- Willie Mays was the BEST player I ever saw, and when asked a Baseball question of any sort and you don't know the answer, say Babe Ruth.
He was so great, no matter the question, you have a 50-50 chance!
I'll have lyrics you probably haven't heard to a song you know well, a song about honor and the right thing to do, a movie scene that speaks to Baseball's longevity and Fountain Of Youth Powers and a Jonathan Schwartz staple at the late great WNEW-FM.
And because it can't be ignored, a couple about the Greed of Today's Game!
They don't seem to consult with us, do they?
It's just a matter of time before Product Patches will appear on uniforms like Race Car Drivers!
As many of the songs I played throughout this Series used Baseball as a Metaphor For Life, I chose to close with one of the best.
You can read as much as you want into it.
I am very pleased with how this Series turned out, proud of it!
For one last time, at least for now, let's Play Ball!

Jon,
Like you, that's the way the guy ROLLS, LOL!
I hate them ALL- Braves, Dodgers & Astros.
But the Braves least now that Chipper Johnson is gone, so I was happy to see Atlanta win the 1st game!
Thanks for the listen,
Mike
Seriously, that reading of Casey during the last episode was too creepy.
Hate the Braves, despise the Dodgers. Hopefully Atlanta will win?
And then lose in the WS.
