IGT — 7/1/22, Rangers, Homecoming

We're in the bottom of the first on apple.tv.



First two batters each out by a half step. Lindor walks and Alonso comes up, and I've had a LOT of invitations to put money down already.

Boy, don't have Jeff McNeil mic'ed up after he strikes out.

Re: IGT — 7/1/22, Rangers, Homecoming

McNeil strikes out with runners on first and third, and is nicely mic'd up to show us just how filthy he can bring it.



The psychological manipulation to gamble gamble is intense.

It's a free app and tonight's game is free. I'm watching it and, unfortunately also, listening to it. This woman's voice does not suit me.

Re: IGT — 7/1/22, Rangers, Homecoming

Peterson in control through two, with the exception of a dribbling infield hit is encouraging.



Escobar dropped back to eighth and popping up on the first pitch isn't encouraging.

That was a little too over the plate for Semien, but that wasn't that bad of a pitch. Mets down, 1-0.

I couldn't get the app on the tv for whatever reason. Log in to AppleTV on my laptop

with my iTunes account, found the game with a splash page of Lindor and score on the

bottom. Clicked on Live Now to play and nothing happens.

I don't hate the apple broadcast, they're fine for national announcers I guess, though I'm barely listening at the moment. Some of thje graphics are neat. The stupid AI probability that makes no sense not withstanding.



but Apple TV-/+ is garbage, that the game is on it is dumb, and Rob Manfred hates baseball.

Cutting the lead from 4-1 to 4-2 is not 'cutting the lead in half'.

The booth is right about one thing. The catcher and manager Woodward left their young pitcher out to dry.

This booth is as unlistenable in the second Met game they've done as they were in their first. They said that the Mets and the Rangers were both fighting for thwir division leads, conveniently ignoring the fact that the Rangers are currently 11.5 games out.

Re: IGT — 7/1/22, Rangers, Homecoming

That's the downside of Guillorme's slight-of-hand act. He tried to snatch that overthrow and make a tag in one motion, instead of just catching it.

Strike 1 was borderline, probably a strike.

Strike 2 was definitely Ball 4
