pull a Beltran
To strike out looking to end a game. Stemming from the 2006 NLCS when Carlos Beltran was struck out on a nasty curveball by Adam Wainwright. This has come to be defined as when you are hitting on a member of the opposite sex and basically have nothing to say (usually involves a lot of alcohol)
I tried not to pull a beltran when talking to her, but no words were coming out of my mouth.
