Tom Brennan - 23 SKIDOO

23 SKIDOO!

Maybe you remember that old phrase.

Wikipedia indicates the following about it:

23 skidoo is an American slang phrase popularized during the early 20th century. It generally refers to leaving quickly, being forced to leave quickly by someone else, or taking advantage of a propitious opportunity to leave, that is, "getting while the getting's good. The exact origin of the phrase is uncertain."

Interesting that part where it says that:

"It generally refers to leaving quickly, being forced to leave quickly by someone else."

Because in 2020, Steve Matz has pitched 23 innings, fanned 23, and allowed 23 runs.

Keep that up and it will sure be time for Matz to skidoo.

One ray of light regarding 23 runs in 23 innings Matz: from Aug 15, 2017 to a start in early Sept 2017, Jake gave up 24 runs in 31 innings, and in case you haven't noticed, Jake's done all right since.
