Sports sayings that don't make sense

So someone at work (hyooooge sports fan - he even wears Blackhawk jerseys to work) is coming up with a list of sports sayings that don't make sense. The first one was "bases clearing double". The bases aren't cleared - there's someone at second. So how is it a bases clearing double? Anyway, care to add examples to his list?

You can eat innings if you put those candy sprinkles on them.
