	Commentary
		Harry Caray's was the first baseball voice I ever heard, over 50 years ago in my grandfather's living room.
		Harry liked the Cardinals to win, of course, and he didn't take losing easily; but Bert Wilson made it sound like his world might end if the Cubs didn't stage a miraculous rally every game.
		When Harry got canned by the Cardinals and became the voice of the Cubs, the team I'd had the misfortune to adopt as my own, it was like going home again.
