(and yes, i have a particular anti-adkins vendetta, because his sub-petra clumsy baseball song 'swing' ruined the first nice weekend of spring for me. stence saw me freak out when it was played at game 2 of the nlcs.)

they only go for hip-hop when the superior detroit version is involved.

oh heavens, don't ever listen to "Casey at the Bat" by Tug McGraw and the Philly Pops (1980) if you want to retain any affection for Tug.

six years pass...

My name is Darryl, I'm a baseball player
One thing I forgot to say-a
When I'm on the field I'm on top of the world
I get screams from all the girls (Dar-ryl!)
Everybody in the stadium, screams for me
Strike one, strike two, but no strike three
When I'm runnin, all the players make space
I run, I slide, and then I'm safe
"Cause you're DEF!" Yo, I ain't soft
I even get paid on my days off
Grandslammer, "Are you as good as they, say?"
I guess you never came to see me play
Any pitch you throw I control it
Lookin for third base, yo I stole it, that's right
I took it while you wasn't lookin
So give me your beef, homeboy I'm cookin
I can get loose so don't you try
I graduated from Crenshaw High
You can even ask Eric 'Boogie' E
