Yes, it was a Police tune from the late 80's.  Very popular song among the early alternative music scene.

It's "Look Away" by Chicago. You can find it on their Greatest Hits 1982-1989 album. This is from the Peter Cetera era. You may remember a little song of his called "Glory of Love", from the Karate Kid II soundtrack. (The 80's - shudder. :P)

Centerfield - John Fogerty (1985)\n\nWell, beat the drum and hold the phone - the sun came out today!\nWe're born again, there's new grass on the field.\nA-roundin' third, and headed for home, it's a brown-eyed handsome man;\nAnyone can understand the way I feel. \n\nOh, put me in, Coach - I'm ready to play today;\nPut me in, Coach - I'm ready to play today;\nLook at me, I can be Centerfield. \n\nWell, I spent some time in the Mudville Nine, watchin' it from the bench;\nYou know I took some lumps when the Mighty Casey struck out.\nSo Say Hey Willie, tell Ty Cobb and Joe DiMaggio;\nDon't say "it ain't so", you know the time is now. \n\nYeah! I got it, I got it! \n\nGot a beat-up glove, a homemade bat, and brand-new pair of shoes;\nYou know I think it's time to give this game a ride.\nJust to hit the ball and touch 'em all - a moment in the sun;\n(pop) It's gone and you can tell that one goodbye! \n\nYeah!...\n\nExcellent song. Watch the video\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYwhKmNwgsk

on't know if they use it on ESPN, but the one they use on TNT, that they started using during the playoffs last year was the first song on the new "Fort Minor" CD. Not sure what the name of the song is, but it's definitely from Fort Minor. Try that one, it might be what you mean.

Well, I live in STL, and during the World Series, our local radio stations would take really popular songs and change the words to Cardinals stuff. Two that I heard remixed were Let's Get It Started ( Black Eyed Peas) and Sexyback (Justin Timberlake) I'm sure you could find them on the internet somewhere and download them. Try Googling 'z 107.7' they might have a remix on their site.

Hey, the song your trying to find is "Standing Outside a Broken Phone Booth with Money in my Hand" it is sung by Primitive Radio Gods. Great tune, one of my personal favorites. I spent 3 days browsing yahoo music jukebox about 2 months ago just to find that song.  Tom's Diner also had that in it but I figured I'd give both just in case it was the other. Hope it helps. Peace.

It's called "Everything is Alright" by Motion City Soundtrack, and you can find it on Commit This To Memory (2005, Epitaph Records) or MLB 06: The Show for PS2
