Baseball fans around the world annually wait for the sportscasters to announce “Pitchers and Catchers Report” … four words which denotes the beginning of the Baseball season. On this week’s show we’ll hear some great classic and contemporary songs about the national pastime from artists such as Matt Watroba, Chuck Brodsky, Antonio Andrade, Danielle Miraglia and, of course, Steve Goodman. It’s time to play ball … this week on The Sing Out! Radio Magazine.
