Tr

‘Ya heed here, buddy! Have you ever observed a man at the plate who appears to be wielding a buzzsaw, his limbs swishing like a Schlafly on a scorching summer day? This is referred to as a “throws righty” in St. Louis; however, for those who prefer abbreviations, it is your “TR” right there!

Consequently, what is its significance? Visualize this: Busch Stadium is reverberating with a volume that rivals that of a Cardinals rally gallop as the bases are loaded in the bottom of the ninth inning. The batter is a lefty, and our pitcher throws a vicious curveball. He possesses an inherent advantage over that individual who is inebriated. Subsequently, BAM! The manager makes a change, introduces our right-handed reliever, and unleashes a torrent of heat. The lefty batter is feeling somewhat uneasy now, is he not?

That is the allure of the “TR,” my friend! It disrupts the entire at-bat! Lefty must modify his posture and may even need to delve a little deeper. Theso alluring in the past may have abruptly become less appealing. It is a psychological exercise, as you can see. It’s a completely different scenario!

Therefore, prepare to be ecstatic the next time you receive a ‘TR’ contact! It indicates a shift in the tides; our lads may be on the brink of a remarkable revival! And now, let’s move on to the game of cards, a term often used in baseball to refer to the next phase of the game.
