Take him out to the ball game: LSU baseball coach Paul Mainieri sang Take Me Out to the Ball Game during the seventh-inning stretch of Sunday’s game between the Chicago Cubs and the Cincinnati Reds. Mainieri led the Wrigley Field crowd in singing the song, a longtime tradition at the Chicago baseball park. The coach might have had more gusto and good spirits than vocal talent, but the crowd appeared to appreciate his performance, especially a group waving an LSU flag and wearing purple-and-gold gear. Check out Mainieri’s performance here.
