Poem where Buk calls pitches at a baseball game

Buk and his lady go to a baseball game, and she ends up leaving because he gets too drunk. After she leaves, he proceeds to call every pitch correctly before its thrown, "Ball!" "Strike!" "Base hit!" The crowd rallies around him, he goes home and tells his lady what a great man he is and how he deserves better....and then falls asleep with all his clothes on. I think I've remembered the gist of it, I just can't remember the title. I want to go back and read it because it really cracked me up. Any help appreciated
