Spring Training Games Begin Today!


Yes, it's true.  Baseball spring training games start today in Florida and Arizona - a sure sign of spring, despite the snow up north.  In honor of this wonderful time, I am featuring a photograph of the late Harry Caray, leading the crowd in the singing of "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" from the broadcast booth of old Comiskey Park back in 1980.  Most Cub Fans seem to forget that Harry Cary was the long time announcer for the Chicago White Sox (not to mention the St. Louis Cardinals) before becoming the voice of the Chicago Cubs.  Harry did not just spring up full grown from the outfield of Wrigley Field, although a number of Wrigley Field Bleacher Bums swear that they witnessed this event.  Let's Play Two!
