Bummer he won't be calling out the lineup for the final home opener. Get well soon, Bob Sheppard.

The ovation he'd get would definitely reduce him to tears. It would be a nice thank you for the new stadium from the fans. Gayle, I too would love to see the boss on the field.

Plus didn't he throw out the first pitch before the final playoff game against Cleveland last year? I can think of a list of people I rather see then Reggie, Yogi, Whitey, Murcer, Bernie, Paul O'Neil, The Boss himself, heck even Eli would be interesting as someone mentioned again. But oh well, its only 30 second thing, and it is the 30th anniversary of the '78 championship. I still find this to be a tad bit disappointing.
