    3rd is somewhat overstuffed at 18 songs.... But it's still an ideal soundtrack for the dead of winter, when you're pining for pitchers and catcher to report, or when your team's out of the race by the dog days of August. [No. 108, p.54]

    While a talking blues about baseball cards edges into geekville, "To The Veterans Committee," a sunshine pop supreme, might have you singing the praises of Dale Murphy without even knowing who he is. [May 2014, p.69]

    You don't have to love baseball to love the Baseball Project (though it clearly helps)--on 3rd, this band has made an album that listeners who love a good story with some tough guitars can like, even if they're foolish enough to prefer football.

    3rd makes you love it for the same reasons you love the game itself; It’s a pleasant distraction built on timeless tradition and fascinating narrative. It’s sometimes exciting, often gripping and always nostalgic.
