its not just the error
he only had 90 RBIs batting 3rd for the NL team that scored the most runs

he's 5-9 in the series

What's so bad about these announcers?
I’m serious. I heard a REALLY bad announcer (Ed Farmer?) on the radio for the Sox the other day…slurred speech, no emotion or expressivity at all. These guys on TV sound OK to me.

Is Why TBS hired the Brewers announcer and then assigned him to their games…He sounded like a total homer today. They hired the Red Sox announcer and placed him in the White Sox Series.

And was easily the most talented cubs team of my lifetime. They are having some serious mental problems against the dodgers, who (btw) we wouldn’t be playing if we had beaten the Brewers.
This isn’t a “new owner” “front office” problem. Hendry has been great. This is pure mental stuff. It’s the hardest thing to fix and they just need a breakthrough moment to get through it.

A best of 7 series is more statistically significant than a best of 5 series....
and that can be proven mathematically. But the MLB is not interested in significance.
