I am not familiar with the rules of base ball but is the Babe Ruth one some sort of play on the words "Get Out" in relation to either hitting the ball out of the field or being caught out?

oooooooo...good call Karnu! in baseball, a 'strike' is a swing and miss, or no swing and the pitch in the 'strike zone' or sometimes a swing and a hit that goes foul is a 'strike', but 3 'strikes' is always an 'out'.
