NOTES:
 
   Music composed and conducted by Bernie Wayne; "Abner The Baseball" A Fantasy Written and Performed By Eddie Lawrence was recorded on the Coral Record label in 1957. "Abner The Baseball" was also included on the 1958 LP record album, "The Kingdom of Eddie Lawrence. In 1960 Lawrence began a six-year association with Paramount's cartoon Studios, providing the voices for thirteen animated shorts. In 1961, he did the voice for "Abner The Baseball" a cartoon special that aired with "The New Casper Cartoon Show"

  The story told from the viewpoint of a baseball named Abner, in a game played at Yankee Stadium against the Cleveland Indians. The fantasy starts in the bottom of the 9th with Yogi Berra up at the plate. Abner, chosen from a bag of balls, landed in the umps back pocket as his friend "Sol the ball" was in the game. Abner the baseball entered the game after Yogi hit a hone run.

 The next batter struck-out, and with the pitcher due-up in the batting order, Mickey Mantle came up as a pinch-hitter. Mantle Hits Abner the Baseball out of Yankee Stadium and into a sandlot, the worlds lonest home run. A kid chased the ball down and brought Abner back to the Stadium. The kid traded Abner for $50. and a new ball. Casey Stengel kissed Abner, before he was shipped to Cooperstown to take his place with all the other famous baseballs in history.

  Balls hit by the Babe, Lou Gehrig, Frankie Frisch, Ty Cobb, and Ted Williams. Hank Greenberg, Joe DiMaggio, Willie Mays, and Tris Speaker. And, where Mickey signed Anber... "it still hurts."

  The Cartoon short is slightly different than the record. Side A  of the 45 RPM record, Abner The Baseball (Fantasy) PT. 1, Side B Concluded.
