Doing Baseball better is always fun.

Give this guy 3 batters and then get ready to pull him as soon as it looks to go south

Phil has zero command anymore

[JHBulls]

Random Joe off the street would suck against Phil Maton pitching to him. Unfortunately, ML batters are seeing beach balls in the batters box. This dude sucks. 

[mk49]

This dude is just bad.

[Derwood]

Maton: "Six run lead? Hold my beer..."

[JHBulls]

Prediction: Phil Maton is going to shake his head off the mound within the next 3 minutes. 

[Papa Cub]

If he blows this - take him out back 

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

This is a questionable decision to leave him in against two lefties, we'll see

[chibears55]

They cant keep this guy on the roster, is there any ways they can send him to Iowa and see if he can work on his pitching there ?

Would he need to accept a drop down?

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

wow how slow is spencer horowitz jesus

[JHBulls]

So, I am sure I heard earlier the Pirates didn’t challenge a call because they were out of challenges. Maybe I heard that wrong.

no conclusive evidence get horsefeathered

Always wished the cubs would get him

[PeanutPunch33]

Phil Maton pitching a clean inning is as surprising as the win

[sweetpeteman]

Apparently we just needed PCA to go back to striking out

[bddavidson]

Wonder if Dansby has a tendency to play better when Mallory is on the USWNT roster.
