Brushback

What is Brushback?


1.

In baseball terminology, a brushback is a pitch, often used for intimidation purposes, thrown near a batter's head. A pitcher will throw a brushback if he thinks the batter is crowding over the plate, is being a showboat, or for retaliation.

Brushbacks can result in warnings, ejections, or even bench-clearing brawls.

Nolan Ryan threw a brushback at Robin Ventura years ago...and then proceeded to administer a grade-A asswhoopin' on the poor guy.
