8246 Ernest Lawrene Thayer 1863- ? John Bartlett

 
NUMBER:8246
AUTHOR:Ernest Lawrence Thayer (1863– ?)
QUOTATION:Oh! somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright,
The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light,
And somewhere men are laughing and somewhere children shout;
But there is no joy in Mudville—mighty Casey has “struck out.”
ATTRIBUTION:Casey at the Bat.
