P.S. on P.R.

I completely left out an important Phil Rizzuto connection to my world. Phil is the baseball announcer in the MeatLoaf song, "Paradise By the Dashboard Light." In the song, a very enjoyable one, Rizzuto does play-by-play on a baseball player rounding the bases - metaphor for sex. After the song's release, Rizzuto evidently claimed that he did not know his involvement would be connected to such lewdness, saying "I would do anything for Loaf, but I won't do that."
