Scheduled to perform two shows as part of his Growin’ Up and Gettin’ Old Tour at American Family Field in Milwaukee, Wisconsin come April 12-13, Luke Combs took a breather while at the field to perform a new song called “Take Me Out to the Ballgame.”
Not the predictable ode to home teams, home runs and striking out, Combs’ version is a ballad focused on a young boy trying to convince his divorced father to take him to a baseball game for his upcoming birthday, in hopes that his parents will get back together.
During the Combs’ performance in front of Milwaukee’s American Family Field (home to the Milwaukee Brewers,) the musician sits on a chair in the ball field’s stands as his wife Nicole says, “Okay great spot for this one I’ll give u that.”
Taking to social media, Milwuakee Brewers player Christian Yelich wrote “Enjoy the Homer Dome,” to which Luke responded, “Will do bud! Thanks for the bat!” and the singer’s frequent co-writer Ray Fulcher, who penned “When It Rains It Pours” and “Even Though I’m Leaving,” wrote, “Really proud of this one, pal.”
A two-time CMA entertainer of the year, Combs leads the nominees for this year’s Academy of Country Music Awards, with eight nods, including entertainer of the year, album of the year, song of the year, male artist of the year and single of the year.
