Understanding Today's Crossword Puzzle

Today's crossword clue, "___ fly (R.B.I. producer)", corresponds to the answer "SAC." Here's why this answer fits the clue:

1. R.B.I.: In this context, "R.B.I." most likely stands for "run batted in," a common baseball statistic indicating a player's contribution to a run being scored.
2. Fly: In baseball, a "sacrifice fly" (often abbreviated as "SAC fly") is a specific type of play where a batter hits a ball that is caught by a fielder, but it is deep enough to allow a runner on third base to score after tagging up and running home. The batter is then credited with a sacrifice fly and the runner scores a run.

Therefore, given the context of baseball terminology and the specific play described, the answer "SAC" appropriately aligns with the clue "__ fly (R.B.I. producer)." It reflects the connection between the action of a sacrifice fly in baseball and the generation of an R.B.I. for the player involved in the play.
