It is America's pastime. Everyone loves to go out to the games with the unbelievably green grass and the perfectly blue sky to watch their favorite team play.
Although many other sports have had songs written in their honor, few have been as iconic as the numerous tunes about baseball. The musical numbers are a big part of the experience of attending a baseball game. The national anthem, "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" and "Centerfield" can usually be heard at every game. With college baseball just underway and MLB season rapidly approaching, here is a quick playlist to match the excitement of the beginning of baseball season.
