Chip: 9/7/2021Other than his signature call: “Line drive. Base hit. Caught out there. The runner tags. Throw to the plate. On target. And in time! A double play” which cost him who-knows-how-many dollars, this is about the Chippest comment you can make. First, it refers to some statistic. What statistic? Doesn’t really matter… the statistic was only there as a prop. Second, he surely had a statistic to make this point, but he couldn’t find it when he wanted it.
