Willie, Mickey and the Duke.
Great, GREAT song.
Only Willie remains.
Willie, Mickey and the Duke.
Gil Hodges, John Roseboro, Wally Moon, Gil Hodges, Charlie Neil, Don Drysdale, Sandy Koufax, Johnny Padres Carl Furillo and the rest of that gang we so loved.
RIP Duke.
I love that song and the writer Terry Cashman has a lot of great baseball songs. My other faves of his are “Play by Play (I Saw it on the Radio)” and “Passing it on from Father to Son”
For fathers day last year we treated my Dad and his sons and grandsons to a special Father’s Day event at Wrigley and I took the video footage of that and made a video for my Dad with the song.
I also like the Cubs version and he has done a version for almost every team.
