I Look On Life As A Joyous

Everybody In The Minor Leagues - If You're A Player, An Announcer, Whatever - Wants To Be In The Big Leagues.

So Much Happened (in 1968) It Was Hard To Keep Up With Everything. We Had Denny Mclain's Thirty-one Victories, Gates Brown's Great Pinch-hitting In The Clutch, Tom Matchick's Home Run To Beat Baltimore In The Ninth Inning, Then Daryl Patterson Striking Out The Side To Beat Them In The Ninth. Excitement Every Day In The Ballpark.

Baseball Is A Tongue-tied Kid From Georgia Growing Up To Be An Announcer And Praising The Lord For Showing Him The Way To Cooperstown. This Is A Game For America. Still A Game For America, This Baseball!

I Praise The Lord Here Today. I Know That All My Talent And All My Ability Comes From Him, And Without Him I'm Nothing And I Thank Him For His Great Blessing.

Anything Can Happen. That's The Beauty Of Creating.
