A term used in baseball/softball referring to the third base. When a right handed batter (in the right batters box) hits the ball it most often pulls the ball to the left. A hard hit ball can come hard and at top speed, reaction time must be fast. The third base is the base on the left side of the field. The last corner bag before home plate and scoring...or being thrown out! The hot corner.

Hey coach! Where do you need me at on the field.

Tracy is playing shortstop so I need you in the hot corner.

Me: I love playing third base.

Surf Dracula Syndrome

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.

I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
