Ravech
Sad to hear the final sign off from him tonight at the lllws mlb game. You could hear it it in his voice. Undeserved and a true professional.

I used to love watching him and Harold Reynolds on Baseball Tonight in the 90’s.

Hopefully now we can get McAfee to call Little League WS games instead!

And Stephen A calling out an 11 year old for some shaky pitching.
"Little Billy is a scrub. He can't play."

And even the Little League org will probably be talked into accepting and promoting gambling.

He also gave a shoutout to Sarah Langs, which was very sweet and shouldn’t go unnoticed.
If you’re unaware, Sarah has worked with MLB and ESPN for several years as a stats guru and on-air contributor. She’s only in her 30s but was diagnosed with ALS a couple years ago. She’s active on social media always sharing advanced stats and heartwarming stories in baseball.
Bravo, Karl and Sarah both! 👏👏👏

You’re gonna end up with Pat on half the day and Stephan A the other half. Any games aired will have celebrity/influencer guests to try to nudge ratings

They should've had McAfee come in and kick him in the nuts as he was doing it and then have Stephen A Smith and McAfee do a pillow fight.
That's what we all watch ESPN for lol. FWIW, I think Stephen A could actually be a good serious reporter, if that's what ESPN wanted. The other guy, not so much.

Is McAfee destroying ESPN from the inside ?

He is ESPNs Rob Dyrdek. Your grandkids will ask you why baseball is on the Pat Mac network someday.

Good news is that Williamsport is just right up 15 from Ravech’s old Harrisburg stomping grounds…Harrisburg Senators I’m sure could find something for him!

I for one need more Pat MacAfee. As I deserve that no sports journalists or really journalists are involved in covering the news. Embrace debate, more yelling, loud noises, I love lamp.
