Casey at the Bat

"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;"
        
And somewhere is in Cincinnati, where the Reds won the division championship this evening.
       
The part in quotations is from Ernest Thayer's Casey at the Bat.  I was disappointed at the brief fireworks at the end of the game, but then the REAL fireworks started.  A very good evening here.
