I hate it when they show a view of the bullpen and the announcer says "double barrel action..."

They don't make double barrel bb guns, as far as I know.

You should hurry and check out Knife Party - Centipede on YouTube. It's my favorite!

That's some Rob Long ridiculousness - he's the only one whom i have heard voice such foolishness. For a century we said RBIs. Then some think-they-know-it-alls tried to change the living language. So smart they fooled themselves...

Why is it Ks for the plural when that's a notation, not an initialism? Why is it Ks for the active verb? Why is it DHing when it is not Designated Hittering. In these cases, it is because that is what the living language says it is. Like how we just say "socials' now instead of "social media."

Why isn't it 1 BBs for 1 Base-on-Balls? Why do we refer to the National Endowment for the Arts as the NEA, not the NEAs? 

The grammar laws of initialism dictate that we add the plural "s" when we are tallying initialisms of nouns. RBIs are not a ratio like ERA or GAA. One potato, two potato; One RBI, 2 RBIs.

That weird electronic voice thingy they do these days.

No fan of autotune, either, but here is some reggae/dub that is pretty fun

Nice play.  Kind of unique.  Scored a 4-6 but looked like a 6-4.

I know this is reaching far back into the early innings, but what do you mean? What happened?

I saw the play but it is vague in my memory. I think it was a shift that caused the scoring notation.

Galvis is not a real quality fielder.

Hard shift to left. HARD hit ball to Valaika at "SS". Galvis sprints from Valika's right to the bag at second. Footrace with the runner and Galvis won.
