    One of the broadcasters is Joel Meyers.

    You may remember him from the horrific Spurs broadcasts.

    If this is the future of baseball broadcasts, I don't want to watch baseball anymore [​IMG]

    Yep, and Dierker leaves his starter in a little too long YET again...

    Anyone else see that cheap broken-bat homerun? Poor Wade deserved better.

    Poor Wade should not have been in there, he was seriously struggling and was over 100 pitches.

    Dierker needs to go to his bullpen a little earlier.

    Definitely, I don't know why Dierk waited so long, did you see his groovy pitches? I was saying to myself: man, Wade needs to stop those rope pitches...I guess he was tired or something early on.

    i can explain why dierker left him in i think

    wade was scheduled to hit fourth in the next inning and im presuming he didnt want to burn a guy for 1/3 of an inning if someone got on

    also a question, was anyone surprised they didnt check the guys bat after the hr, a broken bat hr is very suspicious to me even with the crawford boxes

    Appeared like a cheap imitation of Monday Night Football's Interactive TV.

    The guys in the booth sucked [​IMG] I hope in the future they can estimate the number of TV's turned off as the game progresses.
