Lunchtime musical interlude: Keeping that Cooperstown glow

Yesterday was Cooperstown Day for the Orioles' Cal Ripken Jr. and the Padres' Tony Gwynn, both of whom are the inspirational types who take us back to a time when baseball appeared more pristine.

And, I think, with both players, we see an emphasis on kids and the kid in all of us -- that the game should be about both competition and fun. And that there should be pride in an honest effort.

So with that in mind, we bring you a Cooperstown-flavored music video that, with both humor and some sentiment, just makes you feel good about baseball.
