Im not talking about songs team use, or music for introductions, im talking about songs and lyrics that are actually about the sport, a team or a player (or an announcer)

the best ones i can thing of:

For Seattle Fans:

Macklemore and Ryan Lewis - My Oh My



For Red Sox Fans...there a bunch, aint there?

Dropkick Murphys - Tessie


Dilated Peoples - "Satellite Radio"
for this lyrical gem:
[bleep] the minors, this here's the major leagues
Where more chicks call you "Papi" than Dave Ortiz


Lean Back, 2004 ALCS version


Boston's own Akrobatic - 2007 world series rap


and for yankee fans, a little Bender X:

http://www.benderband.com/mp3/yankeessuck.mp3 (automatically plays music)

for cubs fan: Eddie Vedder - all the way


Obligatory:


and just for the line "And I got mad hits like I was Rod Carew!"
Beastie Boys, "Sure Shot"


any others?

Does Bronson Arroyo's version of "Dirty Water" count?



The Goo Goo Dolls do a version of "Take Me Out To The Ballgame".



Gotta love Simon and Garfunkel's nod to Joe DiMaggio in "Mrs. Robinson".

Swing trace Adkins
I am the greatest Kenny Rogers I will try to add the links here in a bit
And one of my favorites I always watch on opening day " who's on first"

[muz0]

One of my all time favorites is a little tune from Dave frishberg called
Van Lingle Mungo. It's on youtube. It's about all of the old timers including Mungo and the lyrics are just the names of baseball players. Check it out! I don;t know how to post a video on here but like i said its on youtube.

I was gonna suggest Tesie by The Dropkick Murphy's. This one is another personal favorite.
