"Talkin' Baseball (Willie, Mickey & The Duke)" is a 1981 song written and performed by Terry Cashman. The song describes the history of American major league baseball from the 1950s to the beginning of the 1980s. The song was originally released during the 1981 Major League Baseball strike, and was inspired by a picture of the three outfielders of the title (Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle, and Duke Snider) together. (Joe DiMaggio was also in the photograph, but he was left out of the song and airbrushed from the record's picture sleeve.) The original sheet music for the song is a part of the Cooperstown Collection, and Cashman was honored at the 2011 Hall Of Fame weekend.

  • "Talkin' Baseball (Willie, Mickey & The Duke)" is a 1981 song written and performed by Terry Cashman. The song describes the history of American major league baseball from the 1950s to the beginning of the 1980s. The song was originally released during the 1981 Major League Baseball strike, and was inspired by a picture of the three outfielders of the title (Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle, and Duke Snider) together. (Joe DiMaggio was also in the photograph, but he was left out of the song and airbrushed from the record's picture sleeve.) The original sheet music for the song is a part of the Cooperstown Collection, and Cashman was honored at the 2011 Hall Of Fame weekend. Each version begins with a synthesizer version of the first ten notes of the song "Take me Out to the Ballgame", before the singing starts. Each version ends on a fade. A parody of the song, entitled "Talkin' Softball", also sung by Cashman, appeared in the 1992 episode of The Simpsons ("Homer at the Bat"). It can also be found on the 1999 CD compilation Go Simpsonic With the Simpsons. Talkin' Baseball closes out the It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia episode "The Gang Beats Boggs". (en)
  • Talkin' Baseball (Willie, Mickey & The Duke) est une chanson de 1981 écrite et interprétée par Terry Cashman. La chanson décrit l'histoire des Ligues majeures de baseball des années 1950 au début des années 1980. Le titre complet de la pièce fait référence aux anciens joueurs de baseball Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle et Duke Snider. Les 10 premières notes du morceau sont empruntées à l'hymne de baseball Take Me Out to the Ball Game. Le morceau original est paru pendant la grève des Ligues majeures de baseball en 1981. Plusieurs versions différentes de la chanson ont été composées par Cashman au fil des ans. Ces versions sont adaptées pour différents clubs des Ligues majeures de baseball, et font référence à l'histoire et aux joueurs de ces franchises. En 1992, une autre version intitulée Talkin' Softball est enregistrée par Cashman pour l'épisode Homer at the Bat de la série télévisée The Simpsons. La partition originale de Talkin' Baseball fait partie de la collection du musée du Temple de la renommée du baseball, qui a plus tard, en 2011, honoré Cashman dans une cérémonie à l'occasion du 30e anniversaire de la chanson.
