Casey at the Bat is the single most famous baseball poem ever written. Authored by Ernest L. Thayer, the poem first appeared in the June 3, 1888 issue of The San Francisco Examiner, but was hardly noticed until a New Yorker named Archibald Gunter shared the poem with his friend De Wolf Hopper. Hopper gave a performance of the poem in August of 1888 to an audience packed with members of the New York and Chicago baseball clubs, and the poem has lived on ever since.
