I love booing at games! I would never yell an insult at a player, but booing is just fun
Ben Clemens

Couldn't agree more
I boo a lot of people at baseball games when I'm attending as a fan
i don't even dislike them, communal booing is just delightful

Elongated vowels are just fun to say. Name your dog Goose or Moose and enjoy

I'm sorry to be a wet blanket, but I disagree. I just don't feel right being mean to somebody, even in that format.
8:41
It feels mean to me.

Happy for crochet! Was scarred from the July game with the Judge homer, but this time he pulled through!

Crochet was money....what a performance.

Balloon is a delightful word for a delightful object

Thatā€™s why I love pro wrestling. They WANT you to boo! Itā€™s their job!

I don't really like booing when a player messes up or stinks in a game. But booing innocuous situations is very fun
Wes
8:42
I respect that, Davy. I feel like players generally ignore boos as opposed to directed insults, but I might be wrong!

Given technology today, it is hilarious how massive the pitchcom is
Ben Clemens
8:42
I really like the Mets PitchCom robot graphic
because it's outrageous how bad PitchCom is
it's like printers
Davy Andrews
8:42
Oh yeah, that's so great.
Welland Jackfish
8:42
when do they use a pitchcom robot graphic?
Ben Clemens
8:43
every time the pitchcom malfunctions
Davy Andrews
8:43
It's hilarious.
Ben Clemens
8:43
they have a little malfunctioning cutesy robot graphic
Davy Andrews

I've actually had an article idea sitting in my notes for months and months. It's a tell-all from the person whose job it is to make sure that every reliever enters the game with a PitchCom that's fully broken.
Ben Clemens
8:44
omg Davy please write this
Ben Clemens
8:44
wowwwwwwwww
Wes

The Cubs announcer repeatedly says that he's convinced that pitchcom almost never malfunctions. He believes 99% of alleged malfunctions are either the volume being set incorrectly or an attempt at getting extra time. What do you think?
Ben Clemens
8:44
100%
I think that's why it's so funny
MattStats5
8:44
You can't do that there, Aroldis
Ben Clemens
8:45
if anyone can get away with it, it's him
not like he gives up a lot of hits

Off-season article idea: how much of the saved time from not having to do signals do we give back from pitch com malfunctions
Davy Andrews
8:45
Ooh, that is good.
MattStats5
8:45
I know, but still.....tight game, on the road.Ā Ā Small things matter.
Guest

Even I can nearly see the pitch in Chapman's glove from the TV view. Wonder what the peekers can see
Wes
8:46
Are pitchcom devices available to the public? Would be cool if you could get your hands on one to try it out
Opifijikl
8:46
Wild Willy!
Guest
8:46
that one was close
Davy Andrews
8:46
That could have been disastrous.
