Finally, almost two months after the promotion started, the Pepsi iTunes caps have shown up in Los Angeles, so I no longer have to risk a Big Gulp spilling in my car in order to try to win free music.
Even though I didn't try to cheat by tipping the bottle to look under the cap (because I don't want to get banned from 7-Eleven), I won a free song on my first try today. With it, in honor of this trip and my unintentional namesake, I purchased Joe Cocker's version of Bob Dylan's "Catfish"...
Yes, there is going to be a "baseball songs" playlist available on my iPod on the trip. Right now it's almost entirely filled with the tracks on both of the Rhino Records "Baseball's Greatest Hits" compilations. I also already have "What Bothers the Spaceman?" by Mono Puff, as well as a certain song that's playing during a current "Sportscenter" promo, which is no doubt one of Dan Rivkin's favorites. If anyone has other baseball song suggestions, pass them along. Extra points for naming songs available in the iTunes Music Store.

Even Billy Martin grins
When the Fish is in the game
Every season, 20 wins
Gonna make the hall of fame
