Description: "Published in 1910, Base-Ball Ballads was Grantland Rice's first book of poems, and the only one that contained baseball verse exclusively. The book includes some of the best-known poems about baseball ever written, including 'Casey's Revenge' (a sometimes-anthologized piece that redeems Ernest Thayer's unlucky slugger), 'Mudville's Fate,' and the original version of 'Game Called.'"--Provided by publisher.
