Quote:
Robertson induces a one-out forceout by Bobby Abreu, followed by Tim McCarver telling us, "Normally a left-handed pitcher ? has a lot of success ? against left-handed hitters." Here we go.
...
After a botched hit-and-run gets Ordonez thrown out at third by 45 feet, McCarver tells us, "The manager, by putting this on, forces the baserunner to make the first out at third base. And that's not a good thing to do." Umm, exactly.
...
Is it considered a step up or a step down when you replace Scooter the Talking Baseball with Tommy Lasorda? You got me.

Toronto reader E.H. Zwick chimes in: "McCarver should be congratulated for raising our cultural awareness for noting in amazement that Wang and Kuo come from the same 'village' known as Tainan City in Taiwan. This 'village' has a population of about 800,000, larger than San Francisco. It really is amazing that two people from a country that loves baseball has a city that produces two big league players. Thanks, Tim."
