El Beisbolero
Peanuts, cracker jack, and a crowd that doesn't care if they never go home. El Beisbolero is baseball joy in any language.
About the Song
"Llévame al juego de béisbol" is the Spanish-language adaptation of the iconic American song Take Me Out to the Ball Game, written by Jack Norworth and Albert Von Tilzer in 1908. The song became the unofficial anthem of baseball in the United States and, by extension, in Mexico — where baseball has been passionately followed since the late 19th century. Mexican baseball culture runs especially deep in the states of Sonora, Sinaloa, and the Yucatán Peninsula, where the sport arrived with American workers and took permanent root. El Beisbolero bridges two cultures through their shared love of the game.
Meaning of the Song
"Llévame al juego de béisbol" is pure uncomplicated joy — the kind you only feel in a stadium when the season still feels possible and the peanuts are warm and the crowd is yours. It doesn't need metaphor or heartbreak. It just needs summer, a home team, and the crack of a bat. There's something quietly beautiful about a song that has crossed languages and borders not because of drama, but because the happiness it describes is the same in every tongue. One, two, three strikes — and still, somehow, you wouldn't trade a single inning.

Lyrics / Letra
Llévame al juego de béisbol
Llévame a la multitud
Compremos maní y unos cracker jack
No me importa si vuelvo jamás
Apoyemos a nuestro equipo
Y si no ganan también
Porque es un, dos, tres y ponchado
En el juego de béisbol
Llévame al juego de béisbol
Llévame a la multitud
Compremos maní y unos cracker jack
No me importa si vuelvo jamás
Apoyemos a nuestro equipo
Y si no ganan también
Porque es un, dos, tres y ponchado
En el juego de béisbol
Porque es un, dos, tres y ponchado
En el juego de béisbol
Llévame a la multitud
Compremos maní y unos cracker jack
No me importa si vuelvo jamás
Apoyemos a nuestro equipo
Y si no ganan también
Porque es un, dos, tres y ponchado
En el juego de béisbol
Llévame al juego de béisbol
Llévame a la multitud
Compremos maní y unos cracker jack
No me importa si vuelvo jamás
Apoyemos a nuestro equipo
Y si no ganan también
Porque es un, dos, tres y ponchado
En el juego de béisbol
Porque es un, dos, tres y ponchado
En el juego de béisbol
English Translation
Take me out to the ball game
Take me out to the crowd
Buy me some peanuts and cracker jack
I don't care if I never come back
Let's root for our home team
And if they don't win it's the same
Because it's one, two, three strikes you're out
At the old ball game
Take me out to the crowd
Buy me some peanuts and cracker jack
I don't care if I never come back
Let's root for our home team
And if they don't win it's the same
Because it's one, two, three strikes you're out
At the old ball game
