Fun New England fact - Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline is played at the bottom of the 8th inning at Red Sox games because during a 1997 game at Fenway an employee in charge of ballpark music during the season, played "Sweet Caroline" because someone she knew had just had a baby named Caroline. If you are going to pops, be prepared "So good, so good".
