I really liked the Pre-Game Panel on Fox with A-Rod and Co. but I feel like half of the announcing team was half asleep and that wasn’t Smoltz who was a great commentator and hopefully more so in the future. Yes, talking about Joe Buck who seemed a bit asleep, not bothering (or able) to call the pitch-types the way other good commentators like Jon Miller do. He made some goofy statements including calling Bregman the second baseman.
What I’m used to seeing is the play-by-play announcer normally being the one to find and communicate these kinds of great stories. To me, Joe Buck didn’t seem to know or care, really.
The conspiracy theorist in me thinks they might have omitted it intentionally because the story goes against the “white privilege” meme. Only black people are aggrieved or sumthin’
