They were probably talking about how bad those 2 runs Jerome gave up in the 9th inning were.
''It was 6-1, we had a chance at coming back in the bottom of the 9th. Those 2 runs given up by Jerome were unacceptable. A 6-1 score compared to a 8-1 score is like comparing noodles to pasta. Hmm speaking of pasta, I hope my wife cooked some with meatballs tonight.''
