It's that time of the year again when hope springs eternal - spring training for Major League Baseball. All of the teams are tied for first place until at least Opening Day, and this week on the program we'll listen to a variety of songs and tunes about America's pastime. We're featuring John McCutcheon, Chuck Brodsky, Caroline Spence, Peter Cooper Ray Lambiase and, of course, Steve Goodman. Time to oil up your glove and play ball … this week on The Sing Out!
