B. Casey is upset by the townspeople’s anger.

The townspeople being angry at Casey never quite subsides throughout the majority of the poem. In fact, it makes its presence known even toward the end of the poem as Casey comes up to bat in the ninth inning as is evidenced by “A dismal groan in chorus came; a scowl was on each face |When Casey walked up, bat in hand, and slowly took his place.” And, readers can tell he is upset at this in the lines that ensue: “His bloodshot eyes in fury gleamed, his teeth were clenched in hate; | He gave his cap a vicious hook and pounded on the plate.”
