In baseball, the golden sombrero is a slang term used to describe a player's inglorious feat of striking out four times in a single game.
Russ Laribee struck out 8 times in 1981, becoming the only player with two golden sombreros in one game.

The feat of going 0-for-4 in a ballgame, striking out each time. Could also be known as 'a day at the office for Jim Edmonds.'
...and that makes the count one ball and two strikes to Edmonds, who is now one strike away from wearing the golden sombrero

Of course....he did have 199 strike outs in 2007 and in 2008.

Like a Golden Shower, the Golden Sombrero, is when a person pees on another willing participant, around just the top of their head. Instead of, “showering” their entire body.
