“ I never heard anything like that here. I heard it in the South and in some other cities, but not here. ”
— Manager Felipe Alou
On the air late Wednesday after the Giants lost 3-2 to the Colorado Rockies, Larry Krueger of KNBR went off about the struggling club and its "brain-dead Caribbean hitters hacking at slop nightly."
