Talk:three-strikes

RFD discussion: May–October 2022
After reading the debate on second yellow card, above, I checked to see if we had any entries for a similar concept in baseball: "three strikes and you're out". We don't have an entry for that phrase, which is familiar to anyone who knows anything about the game, nor for any variation of "three strikes", "third strike", etc. What we do have is this misbegotten attributive-noun-phrase-as-adjective reference to "s". This isn't an adjective, the definition doesn't quite work, and the usexes disagree with the definition. Chuck Entz (talk) 06:14, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

 * I know next to nothing about baseball, so an entry for may be useful to have. I don't know what it means. DonnanZ (talk) 09:02, 2 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom, attributive. However, I suggest three strikes, third strike and strike three have figurative meanings as baseball metaphors applied to other parts of life. Facts707 (talk) 06:15, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
