Citing baseball as his personal favorite sport ("I played it for a long time, and that was the one I was best at"), the wannabe pitcher turned catcher ("I couldn't throw strikes") had a thrilling, once-in-a-lifetime experience when he was tapped to sing "God Bless America" at Busch Stadium during a most pivotal juncture in St. Louis Cardinals history.

"Game 7 of the 2011 World Series, when the Cardinals won. It was an awesome moment, obviously being a Cardinals fan and them winning the game," Nail remembered of the series where his beloved Cards vanquished the Texas Rangers. "Being a small part of the history of that year�it was the most nerve-wracking moment of my life."

But nerve-wracking as it was, Nail also couldn't hold back his enthusiasm. "For some reason, I thought it would be cool to look over at the Cardinals dugout and give a fist-pump. It just so happened that Tony La Russa, the manager, was looking right at me and he gave me one back. With everything going on in that game, the fact that instinctively he gave me one back and that he was watching me perform was a really neat moment."

Nail still harbors some baseball diamond fantasies, including picking his perfect walk-up song if he was ever a major league player. "Whoa, that's tough. I can't remember the exact title, but the Kanye West song that's like, 'all of the lights, all of the lights,' that one," he revealed, singing the hook to West's hit single "All of the Lights" from 2010′s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. "Just because it's kind of forcing everybody to focus on what's happening right then. I think that that's obviously selfishly the whole point of a walk-up song, 'hey everybody, look at me,' and that one would be a good one."

While Nail won't likely end up on the starting roster of an MLB team anytime soon, his dream job in the world of sports is much more attainable � and could prove a perfect fit if he ever decided to hang up the guitar.
