I really like the actual commentators on the nerd broadcast, but they really force the obscure stats stuff too much. If they played it more natural, it would be perfect.

KYOON GRIFFEY JR posted:They say a few too many words and don’t follow the flow of the game while shoehorning every stat and metric imanginable in to the broadcast. It’s a parody of the old man brigade’s hatred of stats. Exactly. It's clear there's a directive to shoehorn all of that poo poo in because this is the only time they do it all year. If they used this same booth on a regular basis and let them be natural it would be great. Just do it for every Sunday game or whatever. I do love listening to Benetti and Stone on Sox games, though.

I was getting bored of the nerdcast so I switched to the regular broadcast and they're just interviewing Bud Black for the full inning and not paying attention to the game so I had to switch back.

This is like all the worst low-scoring Cubs games I had to watch this year. The starter is pitching well, but gives up a run or two while the Cubs can't score at all. A bunch of weak contact, and when there is good contact, it goes right to a defender. The only thing missing is an inning where they get two men in scoring position with one or no outs and still fail to convert anything. That's probably next inning.

STAC Goat posted:Yeah, his ankle twists and his leg bends when he hits the bag. I 100% think its safe. If that top leg is floating, and the bottom leg isn't in yet when the ball is in the glove, he's out, even if the top leg hit it. Didn't see a clear angle on if that was the case. Either way, I think there wasn't clear enough evidence to overturn.
