My favorite is when an announcer, such as Joe Buck, who just did it last night, says, "that ball was foul tipped off the catcher's shoe," or words to that effect, instead of saying, "that ball was fouled off the catcher's shoe." Drives me up a wall. Makes me want to get hit by a foul tip sometime during my lifetime.
