Sterling or Scully: Gary Cohen calls a Céspedes HR

So, let me be honest here. I was really into this call. I thought it was honest. Gare wasn’t sure if it was going to go out, and his call was letting me know that he wasn’t sure. It’s so much better than the autopilot stuff we get.

However, the goodwill is wiped out by an incorrect call. Fair or not, the gig is to describe the play, and this is a FAIL. There can only be one verdict.

Verdict: Sterling

Maybe Michael Kay did better?

Verdict: Sterling

While I have you, did you hear Keith and Gary talking about Manny Machado? Keith wondered if Machado could maybe play third next year, wondering if Machado plays third at all.

Gare was kind and told Keith that yes that’s what he had been playing.

Manny Machado has played 715 game at 3B, 148 at SS. Keith’s game prep consists of reading newspapers and listening to Francesa. Jesus.
