Ironic, since Pham was the one who was chirpng about Schiffren being in the clubhouse too much in the first place and trying to get too close to the players. Brewers must be laughing their heads off at an announcer trying to act all though with them like it's an MMA undercard.

Highland Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Schriffen is horrible. He thinks if he shouts into the microphone, it helps somehow. The Sox are 30 games under .500. Fake enthusiasm isn't the answer. But he is what JR wants. A kissass. 4 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tray Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 The Contreras brothers are strokes (as is Javier Baez who was shouting at Sox fans at this year's Opener) and deserve to be confronted.

Remember this bat flip? https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/white-sox-pitcher-suspended-for-throwing-at-cubs-willson-contreras-after-sky-high-bat-flip/ An article about ex-Cubs and current Cardinals player Willson Contreras from 2020 that had nothing today with today’s game. A big bat flip, huh? Did you get this angry when Tim Anderson and Yasmani Grandal used to flip their bats after home runs and call them out for their classlessness? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds about right. ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the point is that both of these guys involved were the sort of guys you might expect to get into it...but Schriffen just came off like an oddball. He needs to pick his spots better. These outbursts seem fixable and I think he errs on the correct side of homerism unlike that last guy. Fixable for sure. His issue is that he just doesn't know baseball, he doesn't know any of the players, doesn't understand strategy, etc. Guys can get away with that doing a national game once in a while, just talk about whatever the f*** you want; you can't do that for 162 games, especially not for this team. I'm thinking of that 23 hit game the other night, there's clearly nothing to talk about and John is just like "hey, isn't it cool that they're playing a game in London?" Stone couldn't even be bothered to give a f*** with an answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as Stone is an egotistical prick, he’s starting to win me over each time he clowns Schriffen for saying stupid things. His response to Schriffen talking about playing the hot teams at the wrong time was hilarious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zisk Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Schriffen is young and in over his head a bit. But his 1st big job is for the worst team in baseball having an historically bad season. I'll give him a pass. Would have loved to seen Harry and Jimmy Piersall call this season. Some legendary s@#t could have come out of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His response to Schriffen talking about playing the hot teams at the wrong time was hilarious. They both sound like brats. On the Perkins catch in deep center field: "that would've been a home run" "Nuh uh it wouldn't have been a home run." "yes so it would have been times a million." *commercial break later* "see I told you it would've been a home run". I tend to like Stone but he's been insufferable to me this season. Part of it is bad attitude that he can control, the rest is that he and his partner have no common ground and the broadcasts are just awkward and uncomfortable. I've enjoyed listening to the Brew crew otherwise, they even brought Len Kasper in the booth. I really didn't think I'd miss Benetti but Tigers broadcasts are actually pretty good, Monroe and Benetti sound a lot better together than Stone and him.

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 While that call today was hilariously bad I actually thought the most hilariously stupid thing he did today was ask Stone if you let Fletcher swing 3-0 with no outs down one. Stone quickly says no, and he says "not even after the catch?" Fletcher hitting 180 something. ? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the prior good catch will make him hit that 3-0 pitch like the one that was lobbed to The Yerminator. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you listened to Jason call non-Sox games the past few years, it was clear that the (already very good) broadcast would get better once Steve retired, cause Steve's heart wasn't in it for another awful team. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
