9-11-01 Poem by Jack Buck

NOTE:  For those that were younger, I am going to give you a history behind this.  Major League Baseball was suspended for eight days, as air travel was for several after 9-11.

When baseball resumed this poem was read by the late Cardinal Broadcaster Jack Buck.  It ended up being played throughout the night by every major league ball park.

It is moving, as there are several in the Cardinal organization comments what this speech means to them.  The YouTube video is from Fox Sports Midwest.

God Bless America – Steve
