that’s baseball

Often used to describe situations or outcomes that are unpredictable yet inevitable. It suggests that certain events, whether fortunate or unfortunate, are a natural part of life and should be accepted as such.

However, this phrase is rarely used to actually describe baseball. Can be used to introduce comedic relief when responding to otherwise bad news.

Paul - “Dude I got laid off from my job today so I went home early and walked in on my wife cheating on me.”

Tim - “Yeesh, that’s baseball for ya”
