Your attention please....now singing

Major League Baseball has booked its musical performers for the Fenway Park games.
Tonight, John Williams will lead the Boston Pops in the national anthem. Ashanti will perform "God Bless America" during the seventh inning stretch.
James Taylor is the starter for Game Two with Boyz II Men harmonizing on the Irving Berlin classic in the middle of the seventh.
Perhaps, some day, somebody will realize the inherent beauty in "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" and drop all this "America, baseball and apple pie" propaganda and get back to root-root-rooting for the hometeam.
