One of the best things about America’s Pastime? The nicknames -- whether it’s a player (The Babe), a famous play (The Shot Heard 'Round the World) or a place (The Friendly Confines).
Certain feats have their own monikers, too. While grand slam has been part of baseball’s lexicon since the 1800s, terms like "walk-off," "Little League home run," an "immaculate inning," a "Maddux" and a "sword" are more recent.
But what should be the next play or feat deserving of such recognition?
