"Sliding with great effort"

Quote of the Week:
As for saying "Rizzuto slid into second," it just ain't natural. Sounds silly to me. Slud is something more than slid. It means sliding with great effort.
– "Dizzy" Dean (1910-1974), former baseball player
    and announcer, on being questioned about his use
    of "slud" in his broadcasting
