‘Bats’ instead of good hitting

‘Ribbi’ instead of R-B-I

They are clearly too cute (clever if I have hurt your feelings) to be so overused.

One announcer decides it’s cool and the rest jump on the train.

These are the kinds of things I think about as I await the Lady Softball Vols next matchup in Norman- where I hope for lots of great hitting and runs batted in.
