I know guys that called catcher back catcher.

I’m an old man and I’ve never ever heard of that term. If there’s a Back catcher then who is the front catcher and where is he positioned? You really are reaching on this one. Just stop.

The redneckier kids and black kids said "back catcher."


For me, it was just the black kids, and they used that in baseball as well. This was in the 1970s, though. I assumed no one says that anymore; I haven't heard it in decades.

No. You made this crap up.

Kickball (not Kickpin) clearly mimicked baseball directly with the names for the positions.

And since no one in the history of baseball has been called a "back-catcher", it wouldn't happen in Kickball either.

Apparently we have blindly stumbled into another topic like the moon landing, and there are people who refuse to believe that anyone ever called the catcher in baseball and kickball the back catcher and it never actually happened.

Your AI gibberish doesn't convince me. It will agree with whatever stupid notion you feed into it.

If you were 100 years old, maybe. But not in the last 50 years
