Hamburgers, hotdogs, and fireworks the all-American day.
"There was only one-night game a year. On the 4th of July, the whole sky would brighten up with fireworks, giving us just enough light for a game. We played our best then because, I guess, we all felt like the big leaguers under the lights of some great stadium."
