"Parmelee's fast ball is a fearful and sometimes a wonderful thing. It comes with terrific speed and sheers out along a pathway that none may safely predict. The wild and freakish hops and swerves of Parmelee's fastball have become proverbial in the National League. Not only does the ball elude the batter, but it frequently eludes the catcher also." - Sportswriter F.C. Lane in Baseball Magazine (June 1934)
