Subject: Baseball Slang

- Donor [13271323] Sat, Jun 08, 2002, 20:30
As I was watching the AZ vs Boston game today I heard one of the announcers say Grace is so slow it will take a triple for him to score. Grace was on 3rd and it got me thinking about all the baseball slang/sayings used. So I thought I would make basically a baseball slang/saying dictionary over the years and see how much it changes when my now 2 yr old is into baseball. God let him be into baseball. There are many simple sayings like ding dong (HR), no comments please, deuce (curve ball), etc. But there are also others that are not so common: easy fly ball "can of corn" (never have figured that one out). Pickoff and runner gets back safe, "read him like a book". Pitcher that doesn't look like he throws hard but at the plate zips it by you "sneaky fast". Just thought I could use you baseball smart folks to keep me from thinking to much as I build my dictionary. If there is a post like this let me know so I can delete. I think it will be pretty cool to see how many I have never heard.

Someone told me "can of corn" comes from the fact that cans of corn are always placed on the shelf in the market at eye level where it is easy to see and reach, like other popular foods.

'The origin of "can of corn" is the most-repeated question received here. Although it was answered a few seasons ago, here it is again. A couple of possible sources of the phrase are cited in the definitive "New Dickson Baseball Dictionary." The most accepted: The phrase, first used in 1896, makes reference to a long-ago practice where a grocer would use a stick to tip a can of vegetables off a high shelf, then catch it in his hands or outstretched apron. Another possible source: Such a pop fly is as easy to capture as "corn from a can."'

I don't remember "can of corn" being
discussed here but it looks like Wilmer
McLean found the answer.
frozen rope = line drive
swinging bunt = a full swing resulting in a
weakly hit ball down the line
Isn't there a Texas fly or something like that
where the ball drops in between the infield
and outfield?

Re: Gap or gapper. Is it only SkyDome that has GAP ads on the outfield wall in the gap?
This is a great thread. As well as these words for Go Easy's dictionary, there's a style of baseball speak. Pat Tabler is particularly good at creating new baseball verbs, for example:
"He nonchalants the ball to right," and "He inside outs the ball."
Then there are euphemisms: "Intense" when applied to a pitcher means "Feared by Gatorade coolers across MLB."

A classic "baseball slang" quote:
"The bases were drunk, and I painted the black with my best yakker. But blue squeezed me, and I went full. I came back with my heater, but the stick flares one the other way and chalk flies for two bases. Three earnies! Next thing I know, skipper hooks me and I'm sipping suds with the clubby." - Ed Lynch, Mets' pitcher

I thought the sweet science was boxing....
anyway, since some of my favorites have been taken I'll do my best.
Uncle Charlie - curve ball
"flashes the leather" - makes a nice defensive play
tailor made - describing a very easy double play
a neighbourhood play - a double play where the second baseman/shortstop doesn't necessarily touch the base but comes close enough for the umpire to give him the out (if he's "in the neighbourhood" of the base)
mustard - extra speed on a fastball
squeezing/getting squeezed - when an umpire who's strike zone appears to shrink and doesn't give extremely close pitches. ("Just outside. Hershbeck is really squeezing the rookie.")
"the dark one" - a pending third strike. ("Common pitcher, give him the dark one"
a honey - a good pitch ("Wait for a honey kid" or "Oh man, that was a honey")
opening the flood gates - a hit that starts a big rally, normally putting the game out of reach
Coaching Terms
Punch the midget - a visual aid for kids who are stealing bases. As they pivot they should drive their arm forward as if punching a midget (not very PC but that's what i was told)
Squash the bug - the action of pivoting on the back foot as you swing the bat.

One of my favorite quotes goes back to the 1965 World Series on TV. The announcer must have been undecided between "throwing" and "warming up", so he came out with, "Mudcat Grant is throwing up in the bullpen!"
A question: Ernie Johnson(Sr.) of the Braves used to say "Powder River" for a fastball(mentioned by Gangman above) as well as "Blue Darter" for a hard-hit line drive. Does anybody know the origin of either term?

Can of Corn- Already explained
Ducksnort- weak popup for a hit in the outfield
HE GONE!... mercy- Strikeout
YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE BOOOOOOOOOOOARD!!!! YEEEEEES!!!!!- Home run
Bollingbrook Bounce- I've yet to understand this one will someone from Chicago explain this cause if it was going to head toward Bollingbrook at the Cell it's be behind the plate. I am confused???
