Baseball is meant to be a contemplative game. They play music to draw young people to the game. If young people can't come to the game without music, then they should stay home.
It is the same game that Moonlight Graham played in 1905. It is a living part of history, like calico dresses, stone crockery, and threshing crews eating at outdoor tables. It continually reminds us of what was, like an Indian-head penny in a handful of new coins.
Any game becomes important when you know and love the players.
Someone once described the pitching of a no-hit game as like catching lighting in a bottle.
Baseball games are like snowflakes and fingerprints, no two are ever alike.
