During US baseball games, fans typically stand up in the 7th inning while singing which songs?

In the United States and Canada, the 'seventh inning stretch' is a baseball tradition that takes place between the halves of the seventh inning of a game, that is, in the middle of the seventh inning.

Fans generally stand up and stretch out their arms and legs and sometimes walk around. It is a popular time to get a late-game snack or an alcoholic beverage as well, as vendors end alcohol sales after the last out of the seventh inning.

The stretch also serves as a short break for the players.

Most United States ballparks in professional baseball mark this point of the game by playing the crowd sing-along 'Take Me Out to the Ball Game'. Since September 11 attacks, many American ballparks complement or replace the song with the playing of 'God Bless America'.

The 1908 'Tin Pan Alley' song by Jack Norworth and Albert Von Tilzer became the unofficial anthem of North American baseball, although neither of its authors had attended a game prior to writing the song. Norworth was inspired by a sign that said, "Baseball Today-Polo Grounds" while riding the New York subway. In the song, a woman named Katie's is asked out on a date by her beau to see a show. She accepts the date, but only if her date will take her out to the baseball game.
