"Just missed it!"
"Man, I suck!"
"Let's Go!"
"Comin' down" (heard right before the start of every half-inning)
He's going ... or in some parts "he gone" (runner attempting steal of 2b).
There's also quite a few curse words...
And the more than occasional "shut-up" uttered by a batter when he hears dad or mom giving advice or telling him the obvious.
"we got ice" - when a HBP
by every pitcher in America over age of 12 when giving up a HR- with glove over mouth = "EXPLETIVE!!!!"
Don't rub it. Or rub some dirt in it.
Good topic. The terms have "evolved" as my son move upwards and onwards from LL through the completion of HS baseball (and now wood bat men's league). One I hear a lot now (besides the usual "back!", "cut", etc):
"That was a PIECE" (of hitting = hard shot)
Mom, bring me a water
(Sorry, whole thread dedicated to this topic last year, couldn't resist)
Every Domingo Ayala catch phrase because he "Big Tyne" now
I always thought this Dick's baseball commercial was done very well and all the chatter rings true.
"Wear that!"
Aaaattta Boooooy!
Today?-------> "Did you see the Oklahoma/Florida softball game last night?" :-)
"BAAAAAACK!"
One for the batter: "Square one up"
And for the pitcher: "All the way back" (when he's at a 3-0 count)
That ump was "squeezing" me...
That wasnt a strike
Did you see that hot mom?
Maybe thats just in the stands.
From the stands, "Straighten it Out!"
"Do your job" or "He did his job" (Laying down a bunt, sac fly, moving a runner over, or driving a run in)
Are the restrooms unlocked?
Coach, check out my lefty swing.
Is that Gatorade?
"Get your front foot down!"
"Hit a tank!"
"Can o' corn."
Mom! get me a Gatorade!
Heard another one last night:
"WHAT? ARE YOU KIDDING ME!"...said often after a very pretty pitch was called a ball.

Mothers are old ladies to the players. Ask a 15-20yo how old is old. The answer is typically forty.
"Check THAT out!"
Hint: It's not the pitcher.
Heard this today...
(....fastball taken in the meat of the back just below the shoulder blade...ball drops straight down)
when he returns to dugout (per courtesy runner for the catcher)
teammates (ribbing him): hey, did that hurt?
batter: Yeah, it hurt a lot!
Heard a new one last weekend. Team is batting, number 3 up to the plate, number four (6'4" 210) on deck. Pitcher comes inside tight, doesn't hit him but player is on the ground to avoid it.
From the on deck circle four yells "Hey dude what are you thinking???...that's my friend!"
Oh %$#^&!

What 4 letter word has 6 characters? Now maybe if it was "Oh that little %$#^&!"..yes that would make more sense

Hitter after striking out referencing pitcher: "He's trash."
Player: What the heck kind of pitch was that?
Coach: A mistake.
(As the ball sails over the fence......)
One of the funniest reactions comments I saw as a coach was the following ...
We were a very talented 15u (post14u fall) playing in a 17u wood bat tournament. We were facing a future D1 17u pitcher. He no hit us. One of our hitters was called out on a nasty slider. He came back to the bench muttering, "That's some nasty stuff!. At least ten hitters came back to the bench exclaiming "Jeez-us C*****!"
We nearly won the game. We were ahead 1-0 after six with a walk and a manufactured run. We lost 2-1.
