Not sure, but I think it was coined by "Ed", who would regale us with stories of his local leagues over on the old McGrif page. He was fairly new to SP and we got to see a few things through his eyes.

I think the one I remember most was that he would stop by the local field during lunch break from his day job, with a twelve foot pole, marked at the six foot point... just so he could get better at judging the arc. He said he would put it half way between the pitching plate and home, then study it from the PU position.

I'm not sure if I wish I had that commitment or I'm glad that I don't.
