As a fan of a wide variety of popular (and not-so-popular) music from the 1950s (and sometimes even earlier) up through the present, one of my bucket list projects for years has been to put together a list of my 100 favorite songs of all time. At some point I decided that, once I got around to figuring that out, I could put it out on a blog, for the infinitesimally small proportion of the Internet world that might be interested. So, here we are. While the Top 100 will be a major focus, I also plan to post on a variety of other musical (and occasionally non-musical) topics, in which you may or may not be interested. (If a particular posting doesn’t ring your bell, you’re only a few clicks away from a dancing cat video on YouTube.)

July 16, 2016 – Harrisburg Senators 4, Altoona Curve 2 (12 innings) – PNG Field


 
Umpires: HP: Derek Gonzales. 1B: Mike Wiseman. 3B: Richard Riley.
Weather: 86 degrees, clear.
Wind: 9 mph, Varies.
Time: 3:54.
Attendance: 6,096.
 
Section 212, Row 11, Seats 7-9 (first row in second level, great view down third base line)
 
Highlights – Senators took an early lead on a third-inning homer by light-hitting infielder Stephen Perez … each team notched a single tally in the fourth … Altoona finally tied it with a run in the bottom of the seventh … Senators won it in the 12th with RBI hits by Wilmer Difo and Andrew Stevenson … Curve outfielder Barrett Barnes was a HR short of hitting for the cycle
 
Other – No DH, since two National League teams were playing … Harrisburg starter Phillips Valdez walked 6 and didn’t make it through the fourth inning … a couple of light showers in the late innings … post-game fireworks went off as planned despite the long game
