Tips from 1870 | Usage: Or, Nor, As well as, But, Save. When two or more nominatives in the singular are separated by such words as the preceding, the verb must be singular. "Veracity, as well as justice, is to be our rule of life."-- Butler. "Not a weed nor a blade of grass were to be seen." Change were to was. "Nothing but wailings were heard." Transpose. "Nothing was heard but wailings." The verb should be was. "Either one or the other of them are in the wrong." The verb should be is. If, however, one or more of the nominatives are plural, the verb must be plural. "It is not his wealth, or gifts, or culture that gives him this distinction." Gifts being plural, the verb should be give. Some authorities say that the verb should agree in number with the subject which is placed next before it, and be understood (or silent) to the rest; as, "Neither he nor his brothers were there," "Neither his brothers nor he was there," "Neither you nor I am concerned." Prof. Genung, author of Outlines of Rhetoric, says: "When a clash of concord arises, either choose subjects that have the same number, or choose a verb that has the same form for both numbers." He gives this sentence to show the change of verb: "Fame or the emoluments of valor were (was) never to be his." "Fame or the emoluments of valor could never be his." And this sentence to show the change of one of the subjects: "Neither the halter nor bayonets are (is) sufficient to prevent us from obtaining our rights." "Neither the halter nor the bayonet is sufficient to prevent us from obtaining our rights." Source: Slips of Speech. |

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
A save is a baseball statistic given to a pitcher who fulfills the following three conditions:
The save is defined in Section 10.20 of the Official Rules. The statistic was introduced in 1969.
- the pitcher is the last pitcher in a game won by his team
- the pitcher is not the winning pitcher
- the pitcher fulfills at least one of the following three conditions
- he comes into the game with a lead of no more than three runs and pitches at least one inning
- he comes into the game with the potential tying run being either on base, at bat, or on deck
- he pitches at least three "effective" innings (this is the only subjective criterion and is judged by the official scorer)
A blown save is given to a pitcher who would have been given a save if he had finished the game without surrendering the lead, but who allows the tying run to score. The blown save is not an official statistic but many sources keep track of them.
