Love this site!
I grew up in Astoria, very familiar with “Last Licks” and “Chips on the Ball”.
The home team, or team batting in the bottom of the inning was the team who got “Last licks”.
“Chips on the Ball” meant, if the ball was lost or split ( Spaldings had way of splitting at the seams) the person who hit it had to give the guy who brought the ball money to buy a new one.
