Here's a clue!
The man of the house and his brother drove to Baltimore and had a great time watching the Baltimore Orioles play the Houston Astros. They said it was a fun game and their team won. Here's information on that iconic song, along with the lyrics here, and an actual video of the Sesame Street Gang singing it. If the video disappears you can find it at this link.
That's how it goes on a Saturday Morning at the Bird Feeder.
I hope you enjoy singing along.
Thanks for stopping by and I wish you all
a very happy month of May.
Let’s play ball!

Take me out with the crowd.”
“Buy me some peanuts and
Cracker Jack, I don’t care if
I never get back.”

Aha! Baseball season! My husband and family are devoted Cubs fans.
ReplyDeleteThat it is! Gregg and his brother took a trip down to Florida one year to catch a few games when Spring Training was going on. They both had a great time and I hope they can do that again one day.
DeleteIt's even sweeter when your teams wins. I thought is was football, trust me but it's rounders they were playing, well that is what I call it...lol
ReplyDeleteThat's very true and here it's baseball but I remember playing rounders when I was at school until I started spraining an ankle or two or three, and then all I was good for was to keep the scores, lol!
DeleteIt's not really popular over here! Cricket is popular, even up here in Scotland :-D
ReplyDeleteI remember going to see my dad play cricket when I was young :)
DeleteNot a fan of baseball..are you, Denise?
ReplyDeleteThanks Angie, and I'm afraid I am one of those who sees someone kicking or hitting a ball and I glaze over. I wasn't brought up with sports.
DeleteI remember that song and I sang along with the muppets...lol
ReplyDeleteMe too Ann :)
DeleteI am singing it in my head now.
ReplyDeleteI can join you, it's been in my head since I posted :)
DeleteI love Sesame Street!
ReplyDeleteMe too, spent many years watching it with our son when he was growing up :)
DeleteGlad they enjoyed the game!
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine :)
DeleteI don't know why I like baseball season so much, as I rarely watch it -- but there is something happy about knowing it is here.
ReplyDeleteThat's wonderful Jeanie and a great attitude for someone who doesn't watch it that often. Well done!
DeleteMark has season tickets for the Twins. I'm not a fan, but I'm not a fan of any of the sports.
ReplyDeleteThat's wonderful! I'm not a fan of any sports either Sandra :)
DeleteYAY for brother time and oh my word I have take me back to the ballgame in my brain for the day
ReplyDeletehugs cecilia
Yay indeed! They had such a good time. Yes, the back to the ballgame is an ear worm I can't get rid of either :) hugs, Denise
DeleteThat is a fun iconic baseball song. A very Merry Month of May to you and yours, Denise!

DeleteA fun thing for brothers to do. I love the tiny box of Cracker Jack!
ReplyDeleteVery much so Ginny! I am always very happy when they can spend time together :) glad you liked the old-fashioned Cracker Jack box. That was always a big deal to have them for everyone to enjoy at the family 4th of July Picnic.
DeleteI know your hubs went to a ballgame. I know he enjoyed it. I love the song Take Me Out To the Ballgame - and I LOVE Sesame Street. Brings back memories of raising the kids.
ReplyDeleteThat’s great Sandie :) It is one of those songs that immediately makes you smile.
DeleteHello Denise,

DeleteI don't watch baseball but I'd watch birds at the bird feeder.
ReplyDeleteSame here Mary :)
Delete⚾ Baseball may not be big here, but that song sure is timeless!
ReplyDeleteI still remember singing it with my kids when they were little.
It’s such a catchy tune. 🎶
Wishing you and yours a very Merry Month of May, Denise! 🌸
Thank you Veronica Lee, I think that song is known the globe over. How lovely your kids liked to sing the song too. I wish you the same merry month for you and yours :)
