duck snort

baltimore chop

flare

gork

skillet-hard glove

muffin-soft glove

"K" for strike out

frozen rope

uncle charley-curveball

lord charles-really good curve ball

hose-strong arm

twin bill-double header...i believe it comes from having both games listed on the billboard

 

I remember hearing somewhere that K came along because when stats were first beginning to be recorded, S stood for steal. I dont know anything about the backwards-forwards swinging-looking though.

S is sacrafice. They decided that K is the second most notable letter in the word strikeout. I don't know about the backwards-forward thing either.
