He started it this year, but Reyes said it last year?  The telecast was definitely from last season.  The said Billy Oatman was the "rookie of the year".  I heard Reyes say Hambone.

He actually re-started it. They used to call a 4 bagger  a hambone and a 5 bagger a holy cow back in the lte 70's early 80's

Wow, storm, Don't doubt you, but I'm old, been bowling a long time & never heard that before. Maybe it was an area thing?
