	Take Me Out to the Ball Game by Jack Norworth
		Take Me Out to the Ball Game by Jack Norworth
		In 1858, the first known baseball song was written, "The Base Ball Polka!" It was not quite as famous as Jack Norworth's 1908 classic, "Take Me Out to the Ball Game", which was written on some scrap paper on a train ride to Manhattan, New York.
		Norworth then provided those paper scrap lyrics to Albert Von Tilzer who composed the music which in turn was published by the York Music Company and before the year was over, a hit song was born.

	Take Me Out to the Ball Game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Among those particularly associated with the song was Harry Caray, who began singing at games in Comiskey Park for the Chicago White Sox from the early 1970s to 1981, then in Wrigley Field for the Chicago Cubs from 1982 through 1997.
		For example, in Chicago, it is sung "Let me root, root, root for the White Sox".
		In the line "At the old ball game", the word "at" can be replaced with either "of" or "from" whatsoever, depending on which version the song is sung in.

		Fans stand and sing Take Me Out To The Ballgame during the seventh-inning stretch The seventh-inning stretch is a tradition in baseball that takes place in the middle of the seventh inning of any game.
		For example, at Cubs games, the line is sung "So it's root, root, root for the Cubbies," and at Cincinnati Reds games, it is sung "So it's root, root, root for our Reds team." However, at Minnesota Twins games, it is merely sung as the generic "home team".

	Please Bring Back ‘Take Me Out to the Ball Game' - September 13, 2006 - The New York Sun
		At the time it was moving, a token of baseball's collective understanding that it is really just a quite insignificant game, a distraction from the cares of life and a reminder that there are events from which there can and should be no real distraction.
		There was even a touch of defiance in the sight and sound of tens of thousands of New Yorkers singing along with Irish tenor Ronan Tynan as he mournfully struck the high notes in the playoffs that year.
		The basic surreality of the whole thing is summed up in the spectacle of thousands of people and all the players, umpires, and coaches on the field doffing their caps respectfully, as if for the national anthem, while a show tune Irving Berlin wrote for "Yip, Yip, Yahank" plays over the loudspeakers.
