"Fielder's Choice" Baseball Jargon Fun Poster (from the 70's)

"Fielder's Choice" Baseball Jargon Fun Poster (from the 70s)

Think you know baseball? Exactly how well do you know your stuff when it comes to the game's weird and funny, if not incomprehensible jingoisms, jargon and witticisms? How about Annie Oakley? Atom Ball, Banjo Hit? What does Bug on a Rug, Bird Dogs, Blue Darter, Mackerel, Sno-Cone or Room Service Throw mean?

Back when Blue Jays baseball first came to Toronto, this 18" x 24" Poster was compiled as an educational, yet funny piece aptly described as: "A collection of words, witticisms, one-liners and what-fors authored by wackers, whifters and walkers in the grand game of baseball!"

Now after over 40 years of safekeeping, this great conversation piece poster would go great framed in any sports bar, rec room, home sports bar or anywhere else! Can now be your's, but hurry, just one to go ...

* Only $20 (less than the cost of 2 Beers at the Ballpark) *
