=Lesson 22 - Casey at the Bat= http://quizlet.com/766128/vocabu-lit-lesson-22-book-f-flash-cards/


 * It looked extremely rocky for the Mudville nine that day; **
 * The score stood two to four, with but an inning left to play. **
 * So, when Cooney died at second, and Burrows did the same, **
 * A pallor wreathed the features of the patrons of the game. **
 * A straggling few got up to go, leaving there the rest, **
 * With that hope which springs eternal within the human breast. **
 * For they thought: "If only Casey could get a whack at that," **
 * They'd put even money now, with Casey at the bat. **
 * But Flynn preceded Casey, and likewise so did Blake, **
 * And the former was a pudd'n and the latter was a fake. **
 * So on that stricken multitude a deathlike silence sat; **
 * For there seemed but little chance of Casey's getting to the bat. **


 * But Flynn let drive a "single," to the wonderment of all. **
 * And the much-despised Blakey "tore the cover off the ball." **
 * And when the dust had lifted, and they saw what had occurred, **
 * There was Blakey safe at second, and Flynn a-huggin' third. **
 * Then from the gladdened multitude went up a joyous yell-- **


 * It rumbled in the mountaintops, it rattled in the dell; **
 * It struck upon the hillside and rebounded on the flat; **
 * For Casey, mighty Casey was advancing to the bat. **
 * There was ease in Casey's manner as he stepped into his place, **
 * There was pride in Casey's bearing and a smile on Casey's face; **
 * And when responding to the cheers he lightly doffed his hat. **
 * No stranger in the crowd could doubt 'twas Casey at the bat." **
