How about this "you-know-what-I-mean-not-what-I-said" question a coach asked me prior to a game a couple season's ago:
Coach: "Hey Blue, do you have any balls?"
Me: "Yes! I've been told I do."
Coach: (Smiling) "I mean baseballs for the game."
Me: (Smiling) "Yes."
The coach was smooth all game long.

Coach: "Hey, Blue, I'm appealing."


Umpire: "Not as much as you think."

And a curious one from softball:
Why do announcers, coaches, etc. refer to the "pitchers mound" when in fact there is no mound on the softball field?



I'll admit that the only brodcast softball I ever watch is the Women's College WS, but at least there they always call it "the circle".
