You're not familiar with that phrase? I rarely use it but thought it was appropriate. A "pickle" is baseball terminology for a base runner caught between first and second base or second and third base. Being "dead" means the runner has no choice, gives up and is tagged out. |

A rundown, informally known as a pickle, is a situation in the game of baseball that occurs when the baserunner is stranded between two bases and is in jeopardy of being tagged out. When the base runner attempts to advance to the next base, he is cut off by the defensive player who has a live ball and attempts to return to his previous base before being tagged out. As he is doing this, the defenseman throws the ball past the base runner to the previous base, forcing him to reverse directions again. ------ I like to use "colorful" language at times. Makes for entertainment at dinner parties, especially when the majority of people were born and raised in Los Angeles and haven't traveled to the Midwest. |
