Grit is a baseball skill often described by sports analysts as being possessed by mediocre utility players. Gritty players play the game in a 'respectful', non-flamboyant way, and put maximum effort into baserunning and routine plays.
It is seen by some as a manifestation of subtle subconcious bias towards white players. The term is continually mocked by the MSTI community by describing players who are struggling as needing more "grit".
