The Baseball Project Season

Down went Rose, down went Morgan, down went Driessen... The Baseball Project - Dock Went Hunting Heads

The Baseball Project are a "Super Group" featuring the members listed below.  It is a project of love, the love of baseball.  The songs are all about baseball, which sounds ridiculous, but they pull it off so well.  The songs are brilliantly written and performed.

I grew up a Cincinnati Reds fan during the Big Red Machine era.  So, this song about Dock Ellis pitching against and throwing at the top of the Reds line-up makes me smile.  The song ties up the Dock Ellis saga with a bow at the end.

I am hoping to see these guys (and gal) this summer.  It's Baseball Project Season.
