Considering the Cubs tradition of having well known people occasionally sing Take Me Out To The Ball Game at Wrigley and that the Phillies are currently in town, there really is no better person to select to sing the song in the middle of the 7th than former Cub and Phillie and currently Phillies TV analyst for the 4th-6th innings, Gary "Sarge" Matthews. Ladies and gentlemen, accompanied by his grandson, here is Sarge singing "Take Me Out To The Ball Game" at Wrigley!
All things considered, it was not ear-piercing like I thought it would been, which illustrates more of my expectations than the actual performance by Sarge. At the same time though, I think that the kid is a much better singer than Sarge. He may have a future. As far as Sarge goes, I'd tell him not to quit his day job, but seeing as he's horrible at said job as an analyst, it really might be for the better if he decides to sing full time. Hey, you never know. After all, if Ashlee Simpson can get a song played all over the radio, anyone can do it.
