currently the only way to play the tape of this entry is to click on the the play button. i think this is the only non-editor aspect of the menu that requires you to use the mouse to do something.
the obvious solution to me seems like "press ENTER to view tape, press any other button [including escape] to exit", and if there's no tape for this entry then pressing any button should exit.
also, editing player/team names

this situation also requires using the mouse (to click EDIT):

the left and right buttons aren't currently used in this screen, so maybe make pressing right equivalent to clicking EDIT for the currently selected row

There's another solution (that I thought may be obvious, but apparently is not) to play the tape: Just press the "play tape" key that's defined in the setup menu to play a tape!
Your suggested solution (play the tape by pressing the "enter" key) also seems very reasonable to me, and I think I'll add it that way!

This is a good suggestion, too, and I think I'll add it that way!
Update: Both key shortcuts are now added to the corresponding menu screens.
