So I asked Google to find a rock and roll song about #baseball to pair up with "Willie, Mickey, and the Duke" and it came up with this one, another '80s classic...

Today's hero, Al Smith, helped to win matching pennants for the very same city -- securing the flag as a regular in both the NAL and the American League.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it: Name both of those teams.

BROWNS FACE PHILLIES IN BATTLE OF FIRST-PLACE TEAMS
World Series preview? Could be. Ford Smith (8-4, 2.90) takes the mound for the 41-30 Browns; Amos Watson (3-9, 3.30) gets the start for the 47-24 Phillies. Buckle up!

PHILLIES TOP BROWNS
Pat Patterson's eighth-inning double scored Buck Leonard for the GWRBI in a tense, close game. Watson logged his first win as a Phillie; LaMarque earned the save, fanning Gibson with a man on second and two out in the 9th.

July 20,1947: The St. Louis Browns become the first team in AL or NL history to field a starting lineup with two African-Americans. Today's hero, Hank Thompson, was one of them. Who was the other?

I'm still playing two or three games a week, but that looks like about the most I can expect to be able to post until I get the play done, which I'm hoping will be the end of September. So stick with me till then. :-)
