Just think of how rarely you hear announcers say Texas Leaguer, all you hear now is blooper.

Another term you rarely hear which came from cricket is...
"Through the wickets!" though I do like the bastardization from hockey broadcasts "Through the 5-hole"
I actually heard "through the wickets" onlast night's Braves broadcast.
