We couldn't let the day pass without noting that legendary Phillies broadcaster Harry Kalas was given the honor of singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" during the seventh inning stretch of last night's Phillies-Cubs game at Wrigley Field. The Hall of Famer did quite an impressive job, too. He was right on tune throughout the game, and -- like any good broadcaster -- didn't tell the fans who to root, root, root for. Then again, Kalas grew up in the Chicago suburb of Naperville, and told WGN TV during the eighth inning that he grew up listening to Cubs games on the radio.

Chris and Phil are back again this week to talk about Citizens Bank Park, Jim Thome, and Ugueth Urbina, among other things.
