Opening night rockers (not John)
The Cardinals show they know how to open the season right .... I think ...
Is the "Speedwagon" being led by Budweiser Clydesdales?
"The Budweiser Clydesdales will open the pre-game ceremonies promptly
at 6 p.m., taking the field in a tradition that makes Opening Day in
St. Louis unlike any other in Major League Baseball...."
The national anthem will be sung by classic rockers REO Speedwagon..."
===========================================
REO Speedwagon is actually a very appropriate choice, given their baseball-tinged lyrics ...
They had a song lyric for the Pirates pitchers:
"I just can't fight this fielding anymore ..."
They had a song lyric for the hitters who could only handle dead red fastballs:
"Roll with the change-ups ..."
And then there was the one for a particular Devils Rays (and former Cub) pitcher:
"I'm gonna keep on lovin' Ryu ..."
Why everyone needs an editor:
"The Cubs were opening their 132nd National League season Monday in Cincinnati. The team spent more than $300 million this offseason on free-agent players and new manager Lou Piniella. Team president John McDonough said nothing has changed as far as the Cubs are concerned."
