Surviving Grady brought this to my attention last month but I didn’t mention it here. With Wake’s start against the Yankees tonight, I figured now’s a good a time as any to mention that Buffalo Tom’s Bill Janovitz wrote and recorded “The Ballad of Tim Wakefield“. It’s not exactly coming-out-of-the-bullpen theme music, but as far as I know it’s the only song about a knuckleball pitcher.
