Baseball and LIfe

Recently, I wrote about a coach who advocated for parents to teach their children the game of baseball, because no other sport prepares people for Life better than baseball.

I agree.

I think anecdotal evidence of this is that so much baseball jargon is in the every day vernacular of the English of the United States.

Make it to first base

Safe at home

Three strikes and your out

On deck

All Star

Batting (a percentage)

Pitching a strike

Getting jammed

Shut out

Big whiff

Up at bat

Hitting a homer
