1. Hombre Brotani1992. Andy Van Slyke.
Or their teams tattoo.
A 'no' seems sufficient but I make it more clear generally.
Huh? The NL only K'd 3 times. Alas the team that K'd 12 times scored 5 runs.
Gosh! I missed that. My bad. I watched off and on for a while, and I just seemed to notice the K's, maybe that was because the AL was K'ing a lot, and Kris Bryant's K, which I watched in dismay. It just felt like it was HR or bust out there, except for the run the NL scored on a passed ball right before Bryant K'd. I have a hard time listening to Joe Buck for some reason. Though I did for some reason enjoy the banter with Tatis, as meaningless as it was, it was kinda fun in a lighthearted way. I think they turned down the volume after he missed that home run, there might have been some FCC-unwelcome phrases in there.
The All-Star game has always been an exhibition, but FOX has turned it into a travesty.
YMMV.
I thought miking the guys was good but would have preferred Buck shut up and let them talk. And definitely interrupting a hitter and asking a guy about his teams losing streak sucked some air out of the room.
But baseball is a small slice of the landscape. They’re never getting 36 million again.
