New Canadian terminology that is said when a pitcher has 2 strikes on the batter. Teammates in the dugout are obligated to tell the pitcher to throw him a lazy boy. As the pitch is being delivered, the teammates say âandddddd reclineâ as the ball crosses the plate for strike 3. As Orthner and Coach Frank have given examples of how it is done, it is supposed to be said in a relaxing tone.
âThrow him a lazy boy!â said Orthner to the pitcher.
âOrthner what the hell does that mean?â Says a fellow teammate.
âJust watchâ¦.andddd reclineâ
