I have noticed that we all tend to spell it out RBI here on the boards, when it really should be R.B.I. A bunch of lazy slackers is we.

Technically, "Drinking R-B-I".
Wasting 2 more syllables, but many more brain cells.

That's why we stick to "Death" to describe drinking RBI...

What pitching rules are used for "Death"?

Strangely, when we describe the game, we pronounce each letter individually.  But, when referring to the stat, we say Ribby.
