Clear the hurdles. Roll with the punches. Batting a thousand. Have you ever heard these crazy expressions?

That's because these sayings are idioms―phrases that mean something different from what the words in them actually say. But don't let idioms make you drop the ball. Let's explore a variety of sports-related idioms and figure out what people really mean when they use them.
