So its pun is to be exactly the same name as an alternate name for something on a sportsfield of a sport that is not played in the country it is in? That is clever.

Because it works as a shop name and as a baseball pun. Obvs it’s not as good as The Daily Grind as only one of the meanings is relevant to the contents of the shop, but that’s equally true for Steak Cattle & Roll, Jason’s Doner Van, The Codfather etc.

but it has nothing to do with baseball?

there’s an italian deli near me called foodfellas which technically works but my god do I hate it

New DiS is great for watching these things develop in real time.
