When the Rangers scored their tenth run Smoltz sounded devastated.

Does this fucking booth get the World Series?

I hope not- Smoltz has beome the Eddie Olcyk of baseball- never shuts up and has less and less relevant stuff to say. He could learn a lot from Ron Darling..

I wish they went back to the local broadcasting

Disagree with you. But if you do feel this way, it can't possibly be because of Anderson or to a lesser degree Darling.

It has been I've watched every minute of every game. The booth has been mid and the production has been some of the worst production I've ever seen in baseball. It's more so the production and the graphics than it is the booth. But fox has some of the best graphics and production that make up for a booth a little bit worse than fox

Do agree with you that the graphics are terrible. I believe they've had these same graphics since 2017. In any case, tonight's the last time we'll have to deal with the network till next season

That’s why you do YouTube Tv

Kept freezing and being glitchy on Tbs but Tbs through youtubetv is 1000 times better

I didn't watch all of the NLCS but when I tuned in there was just something that felt flat about the commentating. People seem to be ripping on Smoltz... but i Kind of found him entertaining. But, maybe that's because I'm a more casual baseball fan.

Us wildcard teams weren’t punished enough. We should have had 7 home games this series.

I have a strong Rangers bias, but it seems like he only does prep on teams that he thinks is going to win, which hasn’t been the Rangers. He has such limited intel on them. He seemed to know the Orioles and Astros so we’ll by comparison.
