Originally the B-side of the album's second single, "Rock and Roll Girls", the song is now commonly played at baseball games across the United States. Along with "Take Me Out to the Ball Game", it is one of the best-known baseball songs. In 2010, Fogerty became the only musician to be celebrated at the Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony when "Centerfield" was honored by the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
