    No, it must be one of those words that is a slang term on both sides of the Atlantic, but has very different meanings.

    Much like the word, "pecker". When I was in college, I met a girl from Nottingham, and we became friends. (I sort of had a crush on her.) One day, I was having a bad day, and she told me, "Keep your pecker up!" I was very confused. I asked her again what she said, and she told me. I asked what she meant by that, and she said that "pecker" means "chin" in British slang -- "Keep your pecker up" means "Keep your chin up!" I told her that now I understood, and that "pecker" is also an American slang term -- only it doesn't mean "chin", but is an older slang term for "penis"! She was extremely embarrassed!

    thankfully, only one run scored.
    [Phil ] Castellini celebrated the team's farm system and noted the team had promising prospects who would one day be great Reds -- and then joke then they'd be ex-Reds, saying "of course we're going to lose them". #SellTheTeamBob

    some didn't want to admit it, but once the reds started this season 10-12 against mostly bad teams, this season was toast. need to take advantage of the easiest schedule in MLB. instead, the reds had a losing record during that 22-game span. can't do that in a 60-game season when every game counts 2.7x as much as a usual MLB game.

    Notice that when Cards get a man on third, one out, they put the ball in play.

    just what we need. this ump calling the pitch on the 1-1 count a strike, when it was clearly a ball. then on 1-2 count. castellanos grounds out. there's a big difference between a 1-2 count and a 2-1 count.

    my god we need robots calling balls/strikes and not these idiots.

    Closing in on 12 consecutive scoreless innings.
