Honestly, a lot of the complaints we have would go away if producers weren't in these guys ears declaring "REMEMBER GUYS EVERY SINGLE SECOND HAS TO BE FILLED WITH TALKING"

Syzm, remember when A-Rod had that one quote about how a larger disparity in score was worse than a smaller disparity in score?  I need to find that link.

I'm sure FOX's thinking was "let's capture their demeanor in the heat of a big moment" but all that goes away as soon as a camera is in their face.

@Eel.  Then you'll love the throwback glove-less retro 1860's baseball festival in Gettysburg, PA

A-Rod was actually pretty good in that first postseason they brought him in just to do the pregame/postgame

A-Rod is great in the studio
AvatarDan Szymborski

But doing in game analysis gives him WAY TOO MUCH TIME TO FILL

Alvarez, Bregman, Tucker due up in bottom half.

This one is not over yet. The Phillies two good relief arms are used.

Nobody loves themselves as much as A-Rod loves A-Rod

Can we bring it back to the reality that A-Rod had over 113 fWAR in his career? Because I'd think highly of myself, too, if I were that great at what I did.

Robertson slays the dragon to open the 10th

That was loud

Imagine Robertson when he realizes they are still two dragons left

High socks + Low pitch combo causes an awkward flailing effort from both Yordan Alvarez & Dan Szymborski.

Nobody is taking anything away from what A-Rod did. Can we also come back to reality that he cheated and isn't always the most likeable character? Its okay to call out hubris where it exists. It doesn't speak anything about his career accomplishments.

My point is that if you don't love yourself a lot after being that great, there's a bigger problem there. His confidence is valid.

Someone suggested earlier that this will be known as the Kyle Tucker game.
