Paul Dickson

The unique slanguage of baseball. Writer Paul Dickson spent several years researching the special slang of baseball, and how many of those words eventually made it into our everyday language. In this 1989 interview, Dickson talks about the origins of some of those terms, words like “bullpen,” “fan,” and the phrase “out of left field.” <a href=" https://amzn.to/3rj7Pat "> Get The Dickson Baseball Dictionary by Paul Dickson You may also enjoy my interviews with <a href=" http://heardeverything.com/2021/05/11/ron-luciano/ "> Ron Luciano and <a href=" http://heardeverything.com/2023/03/29/joe-garagiola/ "> Joe Garagiola For more vintage interviews with celebrities, leaders, and influencers, subscribe to Now I've Heard Everything on Spotify, Apple Podcasts. or wherever you listen to podcasts. #baseball #MLB #slang #wordorigins
