Ah,thanks ,he's a bit of a talker
Yeah, they pay these guys to talk.
But he's doing to pitching analysis thing but without drowning us in technical details the way Smoltz has tended to do in recent years.
Decent start for a rookie IMO

Kodai Senga will hopefully have something to say about that.

That dangling earring on Siri is a new level of flamboyancy.

Somebody tell this guy he's a Devil Ray.

That was one of the few times for us where a good throw gets the CS ... but Nido sailed it wide.

I don't like, when a throw is offline, the catcher gets a throwing error when the fielder could have easily caught the ball but he missed it trying to do a heroic snap-catch/diving-tag maneuver.

Adam Amin, the pbp guy, is the one I don't know.
Turns out he's a son of Pakistani immigrants who's worked his way up through various sports media although
doesn't seem to be attached to any ML team or even ever been a regular baseball announcer. Doesn't sound
like he's out of his depth, though, the way some other sports guys do when shoe-horned into a baseball game.

6 IP, 79 pitches (~5-1/3 innings/worth)
I send him out for another, but I don't know what his history has been up to this point.

I agree with Gary last night, that they've got to take some of that green neon and use it to highlight the numbers on the back.

Yeah, but it would be nice if Nido could come within four feet of the target.
