I’m pretty sure Yoan slept with Steve’s wife.

Stone is an asshole but he's still one of the best announcers in the game and is incredibly knowledgeable.  I don't want him going anywhere.  I just wish he wasn't a dick, but what can you do.

Expecting Jason to call him out in the booth in the middle of the game is just not going to happen.  No professional is going to do that.

Jason doesn't have to be a dbag about it. But something like, "eh, are you sure Moncada could have gotten back given where that was hit?" as a cordial follow-up question is beyond reasonable in that situation. It's certainly not a life or death situation by any means.

Maybe he's not a fan of Bad Bunny style Carib hip hip.  What a dork.

Maybe they should go with someone with a less abrasive personality....like AJ ?

Crazy that completely blown strike call can turn what was potentially a bug inning into one run.  

I know the Cicadas are back but I don't think they were scoring 17 runs that inning. 

Uh...why, Danny?

WTF was that?

Mendick why are you bunting? If anyone should be doing that, it's Hamilton.

Stone would for sure block him for a light comment like that.  He doesn't do criticism lol.

what are we fucking doing?

See even though he was out, I don't mind that by Hamilton. 

what the fuck are they doing??? Happ is on the ropes and THEY LET HIM OFF THE HOOK

Uh why are we throwing Happ a lifeline there

STOP BUNTING

I'm good with Hamilton bunting but Mendich should swing. 

I find it so weird visiting announcers are still not allowed to go on road trips. 

 

Rutherford and/or Sheets have to be better options. This is getting ridiculous. What a help to a bad pitcher 

2 pathetic bunts......doing Happ a favor.

Why do we have Mendick AND Hamilton bunting hitting back to back... Mendick has more power than the guy that just hit the HR.... Hamilton went 4-4 off this pitcher last week. Happ is struggling with pitch count. There's nobody on base and we are up three. I'm not as adamantly anti-bunting as everyone else in sabermetric baseball (the Eaton bunt didn't thrill me but didn't make me scream at the TV in the ninth inning either)

Like actually this is maybe the most confusing TLR move yet 

TA!

Tim swinging on 3-0 and gets a hit. 

Stud.

Madrigal has now hit more HRs than Harold and Fathom combined.
