Funny commentary

[forme95]

Whats some of the funny commentary you have heard in The Show. Heres a few of my favorite

Just had..... "This guy absolutely hammers left handed hitting" the batter is hitting .083 vs LHP

My all time favorite for Carlos Santana "One of the best on base percentage guys" 78 vision 99 discipline and has 3x more strikeouts then walks and guarantees a strike out every time he makes that comment lol

"I mean that pitch is right there, what's he waiting for!?" - Dan Pleasac, on the most arguable called strike ever to be thrown.

Re: Funny commentary

My favorite is “I don’t think anyone expected this guy to have the type of hitting year he’s having” and Mike Trout is batting

Matt: "Zach Plesac is on the mound for the Indians. Dan, what do you know about this guy?"

Re: Funny commentary

When I swing at a super high fastball and hear “I don’t think he was sitting at a fastball at his neck” gets me every time or “this guy absolutely hammers left handed pitching “ when I have a righty on the mound always makes me scratch my head.

Re: Funny commentary

It's unfortunate that some of the commentary actually has potential such as when they talk about their past season's performance, awards they've won, etc.

Then they ask what is he thinking?! as my 8 hitter takes a 3-0 fastball for a strike.

Re: Funny commentary

This is why playing with commentary off is more immersive. It has a feel that you are on the field and you don't get to use audio cues to assist your play.

I've gotten to where only my Saturday games are commentary on. 26-27 games are enough to hear what the Show has to offer.


I can also focus on the task at hand better when I'm not trying to also fill the role of spectator.

I've thought about just turning the commentary on for MLB Network games, or even just the playoffs to stimulate added pressure and distraction during big games, but I just can't bring myself to do it.

It's a combination of Dan being truly awful, and having played without commentary for so long that having it on feels unnatural.

Re: Funny commentary

Just played my 3rd game with the commentary off, and wow what a difference. Much more immersible and way better. Why didnt I think of this sooner. I guess I liked the broadcast. I may adopt the approach of just for MLB Network games and Post Season.

If they'd just shut up for a second.

Re: Funny commentary

Still waiting for them to bring back individual announcer volume. Would only leave Matty turned up.

When did they get rid of this? tbh, haven't throught to do it in years but I loved having a one-man booth with Matty V. Would sometimes turn up the second announcer (Lyons? Truly can't remember it's been years) for League Championship and World Series games. Added that extra dynamic of making a playoff game feel "bigger"

is it possible the comments are based on LHP contact & power rating and not actual stats ?

who's that guy and what his batting rating in your roster ? I'm just curious to see if it's the case.
