So, yesterday Larry did 1972 (list above) and then Rita did a baseball-themed set, tho' I'm not clear what half these songs have to do with the sport:

Centerfield - John Fogerty
Glory Days - Bruce Springsteen
Rocky Mountain Way - Joe Walsh
Paradise By The Dashboard - Mearloaf
Blue Collar Man - Styx
Blue Morning Blue Day - Foreigner
Blue Bayou - CCR
Blue Sky - Allman Brothers

"that pitch was like a song -- it BLEW BY YOU" But did CCR do a cover of that? WTF?
