Again from the children's book about tennis.
"From on top of a unicycle, a he is riding; he serves up a Sleezeball that he has been hiding".
Is it American slang. Does anyone know? Thanks.

Sleezebag es un slang similar a scumbag...

A lo mejor se trata de una deformación humorística de "slice ball", que es un golpe usado en el tenis. Es lo único que se me ocurre.
