Some people are born on third base and go through life thinking they hit a triple.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Nearly everything in life goes in threes and fours.
Too often, wealthy people born on third base blithely criticize the poor for failing to hit home runs. The advantaged sometimes perceive empathy as a sign of muddle-headed weakness rather than as a marker of civilization.
If an umpire misses a called third strike and the other side ends up scoring because of it, I'm not going to forget it. If there are runners on second and third and two out, and if the umpire has just given the hitter an extra strike and the next pitch goes into the hole and both runs score, I've got to say something to the guy.
There is a single entendre, but I don't know about a triple one.
But I got a guy on third, I was in a jam the other day in a game, all those situations, when you need a strikeout there, in big spots. But we are very aware of that fact, that these guys put the ball in play.
The triple is the most exciting play in baseball. Home runs win a lot of games, but I never understood why fans are so obsessed with them.
It would appear that the number of nonsense triplets is rather low, since we only occasionally come across them. However this conclusion is less secure than our other deductions about the general nature of the genetic code.
For the average player, most three-putts happen because of a poorly judged first putt from long range.
I don't ever remember seeing a base runner who was all the way to third base run back across the mound. It was kind of a respectful thing.
Old third basemen become first basemen, and old first basemen become designated hitters.
