Nice to get the win..I think somebody should hide McCarver's belts and shoelaces.Thankfully I can listen to the local broadcast on the radio and watch the TV.I swear McCarver is Steinbrenner's love child....
 
woo :D

"Ortiz hits it to deep right, hooking right, if it stays fair it's gone, HOME RUN! Red Sox lead 7-4"
 
McCarver must have some serious blackmail material on the Fox execs for him to keep coming back year after year, he is one of the worst sports announcers ever (he can't even get player's names right half the time.)

The same also applies to Joe Buck so you can imagine what I nightmare it is when they are combined for the world series.
 
I agree. Buck and McCarver are definitely the worst announcers.

NESN ftw. Remy and Orsillo are great.

I 100% agree. Remy and Orsillo are the best announcers in baseball.

of course, being a Sox fan I should think so.

Anyone else feel like punching infants listening to Chris Berman during all-star games? If Remy+Orsillo did the game America would be a better place.

I always thought Tim and Joe hated the Yankees. Everyone knows that if the Cardinals aren't playing Joe doesn't care.

Remy annoys me. But Jim Rice is horrible, and when did Dennis Eckersley become Mr Red Sox.

John Sterling is the best announcer.:)

I have to agree with that.


McCarver mentioned someone in the Red Sox bullpen pitching in fron of Papelbon last night.





Did he even read the box score? One of the big(-ish) stories was that Okajima closed it out. I really ****ing don't like Tim McCarver.


Anyways, 7 k's is pretty good against that lineup. Not a great start, but it was certainly enough. Props to the bullpen.

Other way around.McCarver just about second guesses almost every move Francona makes. I thought McCarver was going to get a room for him and A Rod after the game..

BTW,A Rod needs to hear a little chin music (where's Pedro when you need him,lol) :D He's WAYYYY too comfortable camped out over the inside of the plate..

Okajima's done well so far. Dice K gets all the attention,but this kid should be getting some too.
 
The best announcing was when Remy was still with Sean Mcdonough.

They used to get punch-drunk around the seventh inning and they'd flash up the 'Inane Banter' graphic on the screen.
 
It should be a decent matchup. But if you look at who Matsuzaka pitched against (KC, SEA, and TOR) the partially potent offense there is Toronto. Wright is probably going to struggle, but I wouldn't be shocked if Dice-K got roughed up by the powerful Yankees offense.
