This song is about playing a brave third base and taking RBI doubles away from the other team. "Hold the line, glove isn't always on time." Basically, you have to stay firm, and get in a good position before the pitch, because your glove might be late if you're out of place.

Contrary to popular beliefs, i do agree that this song has been overlooked as a love song of its era, Lukasa.
