I think I could figure out what “Top of the 8th” means. I know it applies to the inning. But… when it’s at the top? Three strikes? That doesn’t really indicate top of anything. I have no idea.

Well, “top of your head” could mean you have a hat on the TOP of your head.
Or the uppermost part of your head.
In the case of baseball, I think it means “the beginning”.. .but I could be wrong.
The “top” of the inning means the first half of the inning, when the first team is at bat. The “bottom” of the inning is the second half of the inning, after the first team has gotten three strikes, and the second team is at bat. Just don’t ask me about football. I still don’t get that. 🙂
Thank you! ^_^ Someone in G+ gave a long and detailed explanation for me! ^_^
Which you probably didn’t care about at all. 😛
No, not at all! I found it interesting!
I think “top of the 8th” means when you’re tied with someone else in 8th place, you’re above that person on the scoreboard.
