This is why you get Max Scherzer, to stop losing streaks before they start.

Two starts in a row for Smiffles.



Look't McNevill bumped up to the top of the lineup and Smarte way down. Buck wants to shake some action.

This will have the 'Kay-Rod' simulcast on ESPN 2, because who better to call a Met game than a Yankee announcer and a Yankee steroid abuser.



Over/under on first Jeter reference is 29 1/2 minutes.

fugggg this broadcast is bad. The duo itself, but also having to actually watch them announce. Why do I need to look at a little picture of Michael Kay and ARod call the goddamn game??

It's a 9-4 lead, in the middle of the eighth. This is usually the time I would say, "Let's get Smith an at-bat."



Not an issue tonight. Let's get Davis an at-bat.

Re: A May Zing: igt 5/1/22 PHLOL @ NYM

ESPN games are all about irrelevancies. David Cone giving his Cy Young to his dad has nothing to do with the game at hand. And talking to Lindor while he's on the field is madness. I'm sure Buck had a shit fit about that one but was told to sit down and shut up.



They don't really know what makes these teams tick, so they fill the time that could be spent giving you relevant information and analysis with 'personal stories' instead. Nothing makes you appreciate Gary, Keith and Ron more than a broadcast like this. Even when GKR take their detours for funny/silly/personal stuff, they never lose their focus on the game being played in front of them.



3 weeks? That'll give me enough time to figure out how to synch Howie and Wayne to the TV picture.

As I've said before, ESPN doesn't think we tune in to watch baseball. ESPN thinks we tune in to watch ESPN.



Meanwhile on ESPN2, 'Kay Rod' had about a two-inning long love-fest with Keith who was in a small inset box via a bad

connection from his home while Kay & Rod were on a larger inset as the game itself played on in the background.
