Lovingly compiled by the Shout! Factory label, this four-CD box set is a diehard baseball fan's dream. The first disc collects 16 much-loved baseball-themed songs (most notably "Centerfield," John Fogerty's enthusiastic ode to the game, and "Catfish," Bob Dylan's bluesy bio of the eccentric Yankee pitcher Jim Hunter ). The three remaining discs present more than 100 tracks of classic comedy routines ("Beisbol Been Good To Me" by Garrett Morris; Abbott & Costello's "Who's On First?"), on-air promos ("Hit A Home Run With Falstaff Beer"), commentary from legendary games ("Pittsburgh Pirates' Bill Mazeroski's Game & Home Run Wins 1960 World Series"), and stirring words from baseball's most idolized players ("Babe Ruth Gives Farewell Address at Yankee Stadium").

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Everlasting memories
This collection of songs and history make and retain the joy of the game. It is a support to a poem that I have written called "The Diamond". Joy of the game will last forever with this collection.
