saturn Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 I was at our home Opening Day game today. Of course our Orioles lost, but it's always a great time at Camden Yards. Going back to the old days of Memorial Stadium, they always play during the stretch. I think they play Sweet Caroline in Boston. Any other baseball cities have a traditional song?

cookieman15061 Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Pittsburgh Pirates- The Beatles I'm A Loser. ( not really) 17 years and counting of sub .500 baseball. In my youth in the 70s we were in contention every year, winning 2 world series. 1990-92 were some great teams also but since then .............

saturn Posted April 10, 2010 Author Share Posted April 10, 2010 Read all about the seventh inning stretch here. Seventh Inning Stretch I never knew that. See, I learn so much coming here. And Cookieman, yeah I remember the 1979 Series well. The Orioles were up 3 games to 0 and the Pirates came back and won 4 in a row#-o I think your song that year was "We are Family". I also remember hating that underarm pitcher, Kent Takolvy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
