Joba Chamberlain has drawn the ire of opposing players and Yankee fans with his post-strikeout antics, most of which including yelling and excessive fist-pumps. But former New York and Hall-of-Fame reliever Goose Gossage has taken it a step further, calling out the youngster for not adhering to the "Yankee Way."

"There's no place for it in the game," Gossage told reporters Monday during a tour of the Hall of Fame, according to MLB.com. "I will stand by that and I love Joba Chamberlain. I'm with him down in spring training. He's a great kid, but no one is passing the torch today. Nobody talks to them. When I broke into the big leagues, I didn't say two words all year."

"That's just not the Yankee way, what Joba did. Let everyone else do that stuff, but not a Yankee," Gossage continued. "What I don't understand is, the kid's got the greatest mentor in the world in Mariano [Rivera]. He's one of the leaders of the team, so you'd think it wouldn't happen on that team."

Chamberlain's most recent outburst came after striking out Cleveland's David Dellucci last Thursday. Two days earlier, Dellucci hit a game-winning pinch-hit HR off Joba to win it for the Indians.

After striking Dellucci out on Thursday, Chamberlain let loose a huge yelp and pumped his fist wildly, an amusing gesture given that, you know, it's May.
