April 18, 20241 yr Love it but its never easy with this group. Edited April 18, 20241 yr by HuntinHorn
April 18, 20241 yr Does it annoy me that Leclerc gets credited with the win? Yeah. Will I get over it? Yeah.
April 18, 20241 yr I would send him down tomorrow for another arm against Atl. We’re off Monday. Don’t know that they’ll do it though.
April 18, 20241 yr This stupid headline from espn “Leiter Roughed Up In Debut, Rangers Hold On” Should have been “Leiter Goes 6 Strong, Taveras Makes Catch He’s Supposed To Make In 4th, Rangers Win”
April 19, 20241 yr Going to be the first game I’ve watched on Apple TV. What’s the groupthink on their broadcast?
April 19, 20241 yr I like the announcers, I think Dontrelle Willis is quality. It's definitely tweaked from the normal. They'll mic a guy or two up, and they'll have silent time in another inning so you can hear the sounds of baseball. I enjoy it.

Announcers are definitely better than the chromosomally-challenged ESPN announcers. But a slightly dead corpse would be as well.
April 19, 20241 yr I’ll post a link at game time for those that need it. It’s clear. Edited April 19, 20241 yr by shadow_operative2.0

April 19, 20241 yr Lowe 2-4 yesterday. He has maybe 5 or 6 more rehab games based on Bochy's estimate a few days back. So presumably back up next weekend.

April 19, 20241 yr Regarding announcers... you would think in this digital age they would have come up with tech that could allow you to filter out announcers and other sound frequencies during live games. ESPN must pay their announcers by the word. Apple is not bad for watching a game.

There was something going on with my stream during the masters last Sunday where the announcers were very low- barely audible. But the course sounds were very loud and clear. It was great. Not sure if intentional.

There's a separate stream for just stadium sound so you hear the stadium PA and no commentary. It's one of the alternate channels on the ESPN app. Would love to have that for MLB too. Apple looks great for baseball. The commentary isn't so much.

But you would think they could give the viewer the tech and the options to make that adjustment without the requirement of separate broadcasts.
April 19, 20241 yr I'd love to watch every Rangers game and hear nothing but crowd noise, the crack of the bat, and the sweet sweet sounds of Chuck F'n Morgan.

I would be okay with this for every sport, although I am partial to the solo announcer jobs that pop up every now and then in English soccer in the domestic trophy competitions. Just a professional, eloquent, and knowledgeable guy knowing not only how to fill the air, but also when to fill the air.

April 19, 20241 yr Author 3 minutes ago, beer said: Leiter got the "one day in the majors" make a wish experience. I didn't watch - but from what I gather he showed some good stuff and showed some bad stuff?
April 19, 20241 yr Author Are we on le Apple again tonight? Haven't canceled yet from the Stros game.
April 19, 20241 yr Well hello Tricia Whitaker. If you've never been, the Braves stadium is decent. Good views, tight stadium. They have a Texas Live type setup connected to the stadium. Similar to the what they have outside of Wrigley now. Edited April 19, 20241 yr by mdmost
