LOL

Just once, I hope!

Oh no. When the Yanks come to town and he throws like a clown, that's Pallante.

Command for Pallante is a crapshoot game to game!

Basically, if he cannot get the batters to swing at his pitches out of the strike zone, he gets hammered.

How do you give up 19 in 24 innings and still have a job- pitch for St. Louis . Please ship Pallante somewhere this winter for a hot dog or bag of peanuts. It’s like watching Fedde pitch all over again

We are playing Oli Ball. A special brand of uninspired and station to station baseball.

When the fastball’s thigh high, and the ball goes bye bye, that’s Pallante

Yes because there's a plethora of talented hitters he has on his roster

When you can't get an out and the game is a rout, that'sa Pallante...

Agree especially when you are constantly behind in the count.
Needs to challenge on the first pitch and get ahead.
If you are ahead in the count you can get hitters to chase!
They aren’t going to swing at that stuff off the plate when you are always 2-0, 2-1, 3-1.

Don't know why, but alla sudden I got a hankerin' for a pizza.

Next time Brad has to use the rest room, someone should tie him to a stall and put a red rubber ball in his mouth and duct tape it securely. Chip can then just call the action (or lack thereof) on the baseball diamond.

This is what a team looks like when the owners fleece the fans and the team for years. A mediocre team. The Yankees come to town and can't even sell out on a Friday night? Pathetic!

Raleigh and Schwarber both got to 100 ribs tonight.

Stick up for the little weasel, he is your kind of manager.

You can’t make this stuff up. The only time this P[ositively] O[bnoxious] S[impleton] throws a strike is on 0-2.

Our "sluggers" are mostly just eating ribs.
