Even the game itself is getting sick of the Commentary

Re: Even the game itself is getting sick of the Commentary

Commentary is off for me. Liked the 2 man booth last year when it came out, the silence between pitches was refreshing, but it appears to be heading back just more endless filler from what I’m hearing. If you have a good home sound system with a good woofer the sounds/music/etc., from each stadium are really well done.

Yeah...I think there is too much commentary and not enough time to breathe. I understand the repetitiveness because they don't ironically have enough content as yet. But they need to find a way, if possible, to prevent the same stories being told if you play your games for one franchise like the Yanks.

The stories are interesting but too repetitive. I also just think that Singleton (not his fault) talks too much. I like his analysis after an at bat but I think there is too much during the at bat.

I remember the days when you could turn the color guy off(Pleasac) and just get the play by play. Those were the days

Yeah Boog by himself would be fine. He is easy to listen to

If they could get Gary, Keith, and Ron....

Anyone old enough to remember the old 989 MLB games that had Vin Scully as the broadcaster all by himself? Oh man, I learned so much playing those games. In fact, those games were my first introduction to who Vin Scully was. Then they eventually added Dave Campbell and that was cool too.

Ozzie Albies is another one where they talk about how he smiles a lot.

I don’t think it’s so much who is in the booth; it’s how much volume they can get the announcers to record.

I will say that playing 10 years into the future you don't see this. A fringe benefit to simming into the future to play as opposed to playing with current rosters.

...turning off the commentary would be the immediate first thing I would do.
