The poem "Casey at the Bat," which famously ends with the line "mighty Casey has struck out," is set in 1888 and was first published on June 3 of that year. As of August 7, 2025, that was 137 years, 2 months, and 4 days ago.

Although the poem is fictional and its author denied it was based on real events, a real baseball player named Daniel M. Casey claimed to be the inspiration after striking out to end a game on August 21, 1887. If that's the reference point instead, it was 137 years, 11 months, and 17 days ago.
