    In "Casey at the Bat" a player is described as a 'lulu' and another as a 'cake'. What do these mean?

    And the irony of the poem starts in the next stanza, where one was on second base and the other was on third, and from then on it describes how Mighty Casey struck out.

    [Jul 22 04 12:16 PM] the_peacemaker writes:

    Flynn "drove a single, to the wonder of them all", and the other guy "tore the cover off the ball", and so after that Flynn was "a'huggin' third", so whatever the other guy's name was, he was on second.
