I used to love that Hawk wasn't afraid of calling out an Ump that was bad at his job, so much so that it seemed he did not care about whatever he'd get fined. 

It seemed like he'd almost be glad to write the check lol.

did we bring in Buehrle for the occasion?

 

To give him another Konerko rocking chair?

Fined by who?  Bob Grim?  White Sox communications?   I think that might have happened maybe once or twice in the last 20 years of Sox broadcasting...

Hawk was going to go apparently but he has flu-like symptoms post vaccine.

I think he got fined at least for the Buehrle/West and Quintana/Wegner rants. That's just off the top of my head. 

 

I was under the impression that announcers criticizing umps was a similar offense to a player arguing balls and strikes.

Not sure why my picture is coming back sideways

Nice change.

You can’t compare to Jose Valentin. It wouldn’t be appropriate.

There is no comparison to Jose Valentin's.

Nice peg!

Vaughn!

Fantastic throw AV!

I like Vaughn.

Hawk’s criticism of umpires would at times border on overkill, but his barbs at Joe West were warranted. 

Angel Hernandez is the only worse umpire I can recall of the top of my head.

I feel good vibes for this one

Vaughn is getting better and better at LF. 

Andrew Vaughn, outfielder

Way to go AV! Way to go Lucas!

I know, Valentin is the standard that all baseball mustaches are judged by.

For a DH, he's pretty good.
