Talk:A game

I've only heard Americans say this. Is it from baseball or something? Equinox ◑ 21:00, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

• I'm really not sure. The earliest clear uses I can find in print refer to golf:
• 1992, Steve Hershey, The Senior Tour, page 212:

  If you didn't bring your A game that day, you were out of work for a week.

• 1994, Jim McLean, The eight-step swing: a revolutionary golf technique by a pro coach, page 9:

  But, honestly, what percentage of the time can you expect to bring your A game into competition?

• 1995, Russ Pate, ‎Robert Landers, Greener Pastures: The Robert Landers Story, page 127:

  Sugar Tree is really tight off the tee, and you'd better bring your "A" game or be prepared to suffer the consequences.
