It used to be that when youngsters were on the sandlot baseball field, there was a word that was hollered a lot: “Do over!” The exclamation came when the batter is out of strikes and has swung a particularly awkward swing; or when there wasn’t a pitcher, and the batter had missed his own pitch that he had tossed up in front of himself. Exclaiming “Do over!” gave the right, when all chances are gone, to have one more chance.
