  • Play Ball! Baseball Is America's National Pastime
    Play Ball! Baseball is America’s National Pastime This Is America Presents a Program of Baseball Songs and Poetry From VOA Learning English, welcome to This Is America. I'm Steve Ember. Baseball is a sport that began in the eastern United States in the 1800s. It became known as the "national pastime," a game that millions of people continue to enjoy each spring and summer. Major league baseball recently opened its new season. So this is a good time to explore the influence of baseball on popular culture, including music and poetry. Many songs and poems have been written about baseball, and today, Shirley Griffith and I will tell you about some of them. Baseball expert Warner Fusselle writes that there are probably more than 1,000 songs about baseball. The most popular is "Take Me Out to the Ball Game." It was written in 1908 by Jack Norworth. He wrote it after seeing a sign about baseball in an underground train in New York City. His friend, Albert Von Tilzer, put the words to music. Mr. Norworth reportedly had never seen a major league baseball game. He did not see one until 33 years after he wrote the song. Seventh Inning – Time for Stretching and Singing! People still sing "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" during baseball games. 1 learningenglish.voanews.com | Voice of America | May 5, 2014 [Seventh inning stretch at a Chicago Cubs game] Near the end of the game, people become tired of sitting on the hard seats. So, during a special time in the game, everyone stands up and stretches their arms and legs.
