The folks in Caruthersville have a lot to be proud of these days.
Former Caruthersville high school stand out Matt Palmer will try to improve to 4-0 Wednesday night as the starting pitcher for the LA Angels.
Palmer gets the start at home against Boston starter Tim Wakefield.
I spent some time with some of Palmer's family and friends last week in Caruthersville and they are pumped up over his success.
Matt is a thirty year old rookie who spent a lot of time in the minor leagues.
His college experience included time at Three Rivers and Missouri State.
Palmer also pitched for the Plaza Tire Capahas.
I'ts nice to see a Heartland guy like Matt Palmer having success in the Major Leagues.
