I was at this game with my father. Joe D was his favorite player growing up and he began to weep during this part. Me being just a 12 year old at the time, I felt a little awkward standing there next to him. But I’m sure there was plenty others in the stadium that we’re doing the same. Now many years later, my father has passed, and every time I hear this song I relive this moment and it makes me cry. Life is funny thing.

After Paul Simon explained to him that he was mentioning him respectfully, he was ok with it. Rock n Roll was still young. To be mentioned in a song was unheard of especially if you were still alive.

I heard a story that DiMaggio didn't like his name being used in a song ('Mrs. Robinson') when it came out in 1968, and actually thought about suing the record company and/or Simon & Garfunkel. A friend dissuaded him from doing so, saying to the the Yankee Clipper, "No, Joe. This is a good thing." It certainly was.

"Mrs. Robinson" is a song written by Simon and Garfunkel and adapted for Mike Nichols’ 1967 film "The Graduate." The popular folk duo originally intended to call the song "Mrs. Roosevelt," but when Nichols asked the duo to contribute music for the film and revealed there was a major character named Mrs. Robinson, the title was changed. It became the duo's second chart-topping song, hitting No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. "Mrs. Robinson" was awarded two Grammy Awards in 1969, becoming the first rock song to ever win Record of the Year.

Keep in mind - he had to sing this over the PA - so there is an echo - so difficult. Wonderful performance by Paul SImon

What a moving performance that was. To see these great baseball players sit and watch intently was a humbling sight. What a marvellous moment in time.

Look at how everyone is happy, and paying attention. Listening. Soaking in the New York afternoon sun watching the likes of young Jeter and Rivera with smiles. Are the good times really over for good??
