   Is 'Centerfield' a ode to a national pastime?

   • But while “Centerfield” is clearly an ode to the national pastime, Fogerty also managed to touch on his own situation at the time as well. The refrain’s exhortation of “Put me in, Coach/I’m ready to play” sounds like the plea of every benchwarmer in the game’s history, from Little to Big Leagues.

The "Brown-eyed handsome man" is a reference to a Chuck Berry song of the same name. Berry was singing about Jackie Robinson.
