There goes our chance to see Keller get blooded.........

I'm not sure what blooded means here, but we're up 29 in the fourth, putting Keller in would be fine.

VERB



1.initiate (someone) in a particular activity:
"clubs are too slow in blooding young players"


•(in hunting) smear the face of (a novice) with the blood of the kill.


•(in hunting) give (a hound) a first taste of blood.

I suspect that many Iowans will understand the meaning.
