And this is exactly the way Fox wants it. I'm going to watch the game no matter what. You are too. McCarver dumbs it down for the casual viewer.Originally Posted by kellykip
I think McCarver would be good at announcing games for an audience that was still trying to learn about baseball; like if your girlfriend wanted to understand the game better, she'd get use out of his analysis.
The problem is, he becomes intolerable once you have anything beyond an elementary understanding of how the game is played. -

There hasn't been a SS/3B combo in the history of the game with less range than Peralta/Cabrera. That's a routine play for an average third baseman.

Everything about that play was awful. From zito getting a hit, to cabreras flop/dive, to the ground ball throw home.
Yikes. -

Seriously, Inge makes that play with his eyes closed. If the Giants can keep putting the ball in play they're going to score runs. Detroit has one good defender, one average defender, and everyone else is bad.Originally Posted by shallowcal

it's almost unfair for the tigers. They played the minor league yankees lineup for 4 games so faciing the giants must feel like facing an all star team

It has always been the philosophy of the decision makers in their sports division. This is the same reason they started fucking around with the puck on their NHL telecasts, which annoyed the shit out of every hockey fan who had seen more than 3 games in their lives.Originally Posted by krs33

The biggest talent disparity in the series is the quality of defense between the respective left fielders.
