When I was very little and still learning the game of baseball (I am a huge Boston Red Sox fan and always have been), whenever I heard that a team had the "bases loaded", I thought the entire bench was cleared and about 25 players stood all the way around the basepaths. When I first heard "the bases are loaded with Red Sox", I burst out laughing because I was thinking about all these players just standing there!
