I kind of wondered if Bennetti got on Stone's nerves with both his absence and hooky stuff.  Stone doesn't seem to appreciate shenanigans.

He totally didn't have patience for him.  It made for awful broadcasts at times.

I could be wrong, but this team does not seem to be built to be able to overcome a 6 run deficit in the 1st inning.

Uh, this team isn't built to overcome a one running deficit over 9 innings...

But wait, I was told that not being yelled at enough was why these guys didn't seem to care?  Weird right.

I felt like at the end they were sitting about 30 feet from each other in the booth.

Nice! I'm going to take my girlfriend to Chicago for the first time this summer. I think I'll try and catch a game up there in May-June. 

Much better to bring her for the warmer games. My wife will only go from June to August. And will only go to pre-season Bears games.

Better get those tickets now before they run out.

New announcer sounds great

Steve was like Snidely Whiplash to Bendetti. A ballplayer and a dork.

To be fair, I heard Jason needed alot of room to eat....at least that is what Brooks told me.

Stoney must not have looked at the back of their baseball cards for 5 years.

Yeah she has absolutely zero desire to go see them in any kind of cold weather. She's way too used to Texas warm weather. 

She was displeased when I stayed for an entire game when the Sox played the Indians in Cleveland later in the year. She never felt that Lake Front Wind before.

Not bad. A little bland but it's the first one. They'll build a relationship.

Well it's different if Baker Mayfield is playing. She'll stand in a hurricane to watch him play football. I've been to Cleveland and Carolina watching him play in some absolute s%*# weather.

I enjoy that I don’t feel we’re his audience for his stand-up comedy routine

When we were dating, my better half attended several early season games with me. She hasn't been to one of those in over 20 years. But my son will come with me for a promise of a Cuban Comet sandwich, which I am happy to oblige.

Get those cheap seats now before they close the upper deck mid-season...

More like following the mandate to talk up the team even if no one believes you.

Cuban comet sandwich is the best. I have one every game.

Technically he's fine, but bland is kind IMO. Hoping he grows into the gig.
