<P> `` Take Me Out to the Ball Game '' is a 1908 Tin Pan Alley song by Jack Norworth and Albert Von Tilzer which has become the unofficial anthem of North American baseball , although neither of its authors had attended a game prior to writing the song . The song 's chorus is traditionally sung during the middle of the seventh inning of a baseball game . Fans are generally encouraged to sing along , and at some ballparks , the words `` home team '' are replaced with the team name . </P>
