Same reason all thoes CTAA buses used to advertise Montana, you want people to visit you advertise in non-local markets. You dont see all the ads for Illinois and Chicago tourism in Chicago, do you? (be glad you dont they're not very good).

I understand why it's not an Illinois ad, but I just find South Dakota to be... random, I guess

Can Hawk never come back? This is such a better broadcast.

Its not boring. That was my fear of a Post-Hawk world, that it would be an anonymous pair of nobodies.

 

Not so, Benetti and Stone have a lot of chemistry.

I would guess next year he probably won't be back if he is only doing road games this year. The way Benetti is broadcasting...I think they are pretty confident they found his replacement.

Wow avi 105mph off the bat. Love this broadcast with benetti

I'm still very impressed with Melky for battling so hard in that AB. Garcia's HR was great, but I think Melky's AB deserves some credit too

It's good to see him do something positive. But he has a long way to go. It needs to be consistent for him to be a positive WAR player. Not every once in a blue moon.

Yup. That was a clutch AB. Loved it

oh come on Duke

Can Duke get someone out?

Reinsdorf is plotting to move the Sox to South Dakota and I'm going to chain myself to a post at US Cellular Field and go on a hunger strike until he admits it.

Looks like Duke is still upset about Drake LaRoche.

Can Duke get someone out?

 

The answer so far as been no

Duke no bueno.

Welp.. Here comes fat albers

Zach Downs.

Duke was almost too obvious as far as potential to be a complete bust free agent signing.

Meanwhile, Albers is reveling in it?

Duke is such a bust

It hurt his soul!

Seems like every pitch is a hanger

Zach Downs.

I'm as upset with Duke as the rest of you, but come on, Scott Downs was even worse. He wouldn't have allowed a single there, he probably would've allowed a homer

I don't remember but have we turned a DP yet? I know we got the line drive one today to Abreu.

Loved seeing the emotion there from Avi. So huge for him. Very happy for a nice dude.
