Song suggestions for our baseball segment
Kerri solicited your favorite women-themed songs for our show today about women and the economy -- those picks here.
But I, too, sought some advice for songs. We had a baseball theme at the end of the 9:00 hour, which included this segment on a possible new anthem for the Twins, so I asked my Tweeps to submit their favorite baseball-themed songs that weren't 'Centerfield' by John Fogerty or 'Take Me Out to the Ballgame.'
Here were some of the submitted selections:
"It's a Beautiful Day for a Ballgame" (we used this song)
