The Chicago Cubs honored music legend Jimmy Buffett, who died on Friday, by replaying his rendition of 'Take Me Out to the Ballgame' during its famed seventh-inning stretch.
It’s a Cubs staple to sing"Take Me Out to the Ballgame" for the seventh-inning stretch, and Wrigley Field has hosted numerous celebrities to lead the way from the booth for years. Buffett was among them in 1998 when he sang his rendition of the famed baseball song.
"I have your glasses, Harry!" Buffett yelled after starting the song. Caray had died in February that year.As Buffett played over the speakers, the Wrigley Field crowd was belting the words along with the video recording as cameras showed a joyous group of fans all over. They were leading the Giants 1-0, and Chicago obviously wanted to score more to create a bigger lead. And they did just that with two in the bottom of the seventh and another two in the bottom of the eighth to defeat San Francisco, 5-0.
