THIS DAY IN SPORTS HISTORY- OCTOBER 17

In 1908 Jack Norworth's classic, "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," was published by the York Music Company, and before the year was over,  it was a hit on the pop charts.

Take me out to the ball game,
Take me out with the crowd.
Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack,
I don't care if I never get back.
Let me root, root root for the home team,
If they don't win it's a shame,
For it's one, two, three strikes, you're out,
At the old ball game.
