Dear Harry,
I wasn't really.
Nor do I know much about baseball, which we used to call 'rounders' when I wuz a kid back in the 30s.

> see if you can locate "There Used To Be a Ballpark Right Here".  It was a Joe Raposo composition that Frank Sinatra recorded on his "Ol' Blues Eyes Is Back" album. 

Also a bit too late for me.
My modest Sinatra collection stops at the Capitol years.
Although, I do have all his stuff with TD.
Kind regards on a Sunny, but cool, Sydney winter's day.
Bill.
