I have heard it read, seen it spoofed. I think on Captain Kangaroo of all places with BunBun and Mr. Moose. It is called Casey at the Bat, I believe. I wonder how many myLotters grew up watching the Captain.


myLot reputation of 95/100. Hatley (48711)   ranked 958 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

higardengerty here after a year feels so weird. My son used to'watch Captain Kangaroo. Casey at the bat, wow. what a poem.

Hi Hatley, Oh being a diehard Yankee fan from way back which
has nothing to do with it except that I of course know the
name of the poem! Casey at the bat! Oh how I love that
poem! Even to this day! One of my all time favorites!


myLot reputation of 95/100. Hatley (48711)   ranked 958 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

hi opal26 a year later still love the poem Casey at the Bat. I could always envision the crowd when he struck out and how people probably
yelled at him. wow.

It was from Casey At The Bat. And I also saw the cartoon. It was quite popular and I saw it a lot when I was a kid. I did read the poem as well. So if you want to see the poem in its entirely and not the shortened version shown in the cartoon here is the link.

hi suspenseful this just made me realize how I felt when we found out the lady who had promised to help us rent an apartment reneged on the whole thing. there was no joy in Hatleyville for the mighty Claire struck out. we paid heavily for her reneging but we are doing okay for now anyway.


myLot reputation of 78/100. suspenseful (19610)   ranked 1,680 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

I guess you felt the same as Casey and the whole town of Mudville. Anyway thanks for the best response and glad everything turned all right for you in the end. happy


myLot reputation of 95/100. Hatley (48711)   ranked 958 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

hi suspenseful how are things going for you now? I know things have been a tad rough. I know that i am okay here but long for my son to get a really good job,accumulate some money and move us back in together again. but til then we are okay.


myLot reputation of 78/100. suspenseful (19610)   ranked 1,680 out of 32,944 in life  3 years ago

My husband has Lou Gehrig's disease, we have had to put a lot of money to upgrade the house, and get a handicapped van that now needs repair. Our dishwasher and microwave died and we had to get a new one, plus all the improvements he needed for his motorized wheelchair until he gets the reclining one. Money is tight right now. But we do have a new grandson and my husband is starting to go to church now. That is a good thing.happy
