Too fucking late Mattingly.

[Namaste]

Amazing. A midget swings at a pitch level with his head and it’s 5-3 Phillies.

[Namaste]

What else can possibly go wrong in the bottom of the 8th?

Our announcers are so lame and boring.

They do a great job of saying great things about our players only to have said players immediately fall apart.

Like tonight when they mentioned Floro’s scoreless streak multiple times and how great the bullpen has been. It was the first sign we were going to lose the game, it never fails.

Agreed. Severino has gotten better but still feels like a national guy calling a local game (and he is), while Todd just rambles on and on and on, to my point.

yeah, it's brutal. the remote calling of road games makes it even worse. i've been watching opponent broadcasts when we're on the road even by teams/crews i really dislike (like philadelphia's).

the dodgers crew was a treat to listen to (and it was in 4k to boot)

I don't know if the organization would even listen if we complained about it.

i think we know the answer to that - it feels like fans of rich and tommy were definitely the loudest voices in the room, and no one cared.

severino's supposed excitement feels so forced.

Jesus Sanchez’s batting average is back up to .500 at AAA. Unrelated Corey Dickerson and Garrett Cooper are awful.

Did you know Jazz Chisholm hit a HR vs DeGrom? In case you missed every game he has played since then that our announcers bring it up.

[Madman81]

that pitch was scorched - this new baseball blows

[Erick]

Our announcers are just the worst.

They’re homers, and not that jinxes are real, but they certainly make it feel that way.

[Nick]

I’ve got a bad feeling.

[Nick]

Christ that was too close.

[Spork5812]

I was almost certain we were going to lose this game when we didn't get more runs in that bases loaded situation. I had my eyes closed for every pitch during that last at bat.
