Yeah, but when Zobrist and Dex finally cool off a bit, he needs to be out of his early season funk or it's really going to look worse.

McCarver was complaining about teams trying to drive up pitch counts on the opposing pitcher last night. "Get him out of the game by scoring runs, not by raising his pitch count!"

 

Yeah, that was pretty amazing. McCarver is one of those guys who people treat with reverence even though they're [expletive] awful. Maybe it's because he carried around Bob Gibson's jock, I don't know. What I do know is that you'll routinely hear him say some of the dumbest [expletive] you've ever heard.

Oh, he played with Bob Gibson? I never have heard him mention that.

I'm sure it's because he's been a national tv color commentator forever so it's gotta be a nostalgia thing or something.

Finally, they are able to get a Red Sox-Yankee game on national TV; I think it might have been one full game since that happened.
