May 7, 20223 yr People who dislike Benetti dont watch enough games of other teams broadcasters. Theres a reason hes getting so many national games, and its because hes a top 3 announcer in baseball.

He needs to start being a bit less deferential to partners if he wants to be a great one. Less like a junior partner and more confident that he’s the one they are tuning in to listen to.

I don't watch much basketball, but I love him on college football. Wish he'd take over for Mike Tirico on ND games when he moves to NFL games.

Benetti is the unbiased play by play man (White Sox game excluded), then you have one announcer from each of the teams regular announcers. It's an interesting concept. Sometimes during Baltimore vs. Nats series they will have the Nats’ PBP team with the O’s color man and vice-versa, or the regular crews alternate innings of the same game.
May 9, 20223 yr Was a great broadcast today, you could definitely tell they were cheering for the good Sox but it wasnt obnoxious.

We'll see this next Sunday....former Sox/Brave Andruw Jones and former Padre Mark Sweeney for Pads @ Braves. Actually thought Youkilis was really good. Understated at first, definitely not a broadcasting voice...but excellent sense of humor and perfectly-timed insights. Much better than Stone and Benetti together, more balanced.
