For the first time in 2014, Sunday Night Baseball and Baseball Tonight: Sunday Night Countdown will hit Wrigley Field in Chicago, Ill. to celebrate 100 years of the historic ballpark and to document the continuation of one of the sport’s classic rivalries: the Chicago Cubs versus the St. Louis Cardinals.
But this week, there’s a twist.
“The voice” of Sunday Night Baseball – Dan Shulman – will be putting his unmistakable chops to the test when he and his booth-mate John Kruk sing “Take Me Out To The Ball Game” during the seventh-inning stretch.
They become the latest ESPN commentator and analysts to continue Cubs broadcasting legend Harry Caray’s legacy of singing the classic tune.
