Chad, if you are a Mets fan, you’d like YLT’s Moby Octopad off of I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One.

Eight o’clock, the lights are on at Shea
Phone turned down, we’ve nothing much to say
Dozing off the TV drones
Huskey makes the turn and heads for home

And Melvin, good point, can’t believe that I neglected to include Nelly. Batter Up off of Country Grammar would be a good start.

Then, of course, there's Killer Mike (part of the OutKast clique)'s song "Home of the Brave," which has as one of its opening lines, "Just because you wearin' a Braves jersey doesn't mean you playin' on the same team we playin' on." I love the Braves; hate the Yankees (but doesn't everyone?) Not really a song, but a lyric in Tribe Called Quest’s “Award Tour”:

“Comin’ with more hits than the Braves and the Yankees”

I'm terribly excited about this season as well, wlthough am hoping for a Brewers v. Blue Jays World Series. I posted a baseball mix on my site last week, featuring all of my favorite baseball-ish songs. Here's the track list: http://www.joedevivre.com/baseball.html Great post.
