Let's go to Bob Costas.
All right, thanks very much, Ben and Joe.
As you mentioned earlier, this ballpark, oldest in the major leagues at 73, was the site of the first All-Star game 50 years ago to the day.
The American Lakers enjoyed things then.
They won 12 of the first 16 Midsummer Classics.
And they won the first one, 4-2, with the help of a Babe Ruth home run.
And what a Major League debut.
His new teammates, some of whose names he may not yet know, all waiting for him at the plate.
As usual, plenty of familiar faces at the Garden for a big playoff game.
Evander Holyfield, who must not be in training.
Earlier, I saw him wolf down two hot dogs.
Ben Stiller.
James Kahn.
J.F.K.
Jr.
And upstairs, Tiger Woods.
Two Saturday Night Live alums who've gone on to movie stardom.
Adam Sandler and Billy Crystal.
And Woody Allen.
We were doing so well.
