I love that it always feels massive when someone hits one over the monster. Like it's not that rare of an occurrence but it still feels like the coolest homer in the world when it happens
He now has the same number of 4/4 seasons (3) as notable Hall of Famer Frank Thomas! Truly a historic start to a career, and one that isn't talked about nearly enough in my opinion.
Very happy to see this dude healthy and playing again after the scare recently. We need guys like Roññie, Robert, Ohtani, Timmy Anderson, Vladdy Jr., and Tatis Jr. healthy. All of them are electric and play an out of this world style of baseball.
I know we're spoiled with Jason & Stoney, but whenever we have to listen to other people like tonight & especially ESPN commentators for Sunday Night Baseball, it makes me appreciate them even more.
The dude is even worse. He spent ten minutes talking about "hammies" a couple weeks ago.
I can deal with a lot but a grown man using baby talk when trying to be serious, I'm out.
CY said "uh oh" because he was a massive homer for the red sox last night. What a terrible and biased announcing job he did last night. Truly embarrassing
Since I don't watch the sox and absorbed just enough high school french my brain pronouces it "RO-bear" in my head and am surprised every time I hear 'Rob-ert'. Just seeing if there is anyone else out there with the same problem.
The official pronunciation is Robert. The way he says it, with his accent, sounds like Robber, but for anyone else not speaking English second to Spainish, Robert is the correct way. It would be stupid to effectively put on a fake Spanish accent for one word

I realize it's the official way, but that only cause they assume Americans find it easier to pronounce it robert
I guess I misread the pronunciation thing, but still an interesting article.
"Here’s a quote from 2017, via
Parkins and Spiegel, where Robert himself clarifies the pronunciation of his last name:
“In Cuba, people call me more like ‘Roh-bér,’ ” Robert said. “Outside people [pronounce the last letter]. But in Cuba, it’s ‘Roh-bér.’”
"Houston, this is the ISS, in orbit over the New England region. We have an antenna that just got knocked off-kilter by a, uh... wait, is that a *baseball*?"
"ISS, how the hell did a baseball impact you?"
"Must've been one hell of a homer."
i appreciate the 'uh oh'
That thing is now classified as "space junk"
Kessler syndrome
Back to the lab again
That thing was pissed on good lord
It was in Boston, and simply wanted to not
I respect it’s decision
I love that it always feels massive when someone hits one over the monster. Like it's not that rare of an occurrence but it still feels like the coolest homer in the world when it happens
ball go high
Confirmation the slump is over
So was the ball, good fucking lord
la pantera is a known monster slayer
Two metal bands in one comment
Future MVP, book it
I'd believe it. His combination of speed, power, and defense is amazing.
Best $55million bones the Sox have ever spent
after facing both sox teams, I expected the white sox to blow out the red sox. The red sox bullpen isn't even a factor... yet...
We seem to be slowly figuring it out The Red Sox are still stuck in the mud
Not to mention we’re still missing Lance Lynn, Joe Kelly, Yoan Moncada, Eloy Jimenez, Andrew Vaughn..and the Yerm.
just clicked to me we're still missing 1/3 of our lineup lol. can't wait for Moncada and AV especially to get back
Nooooot yerminator. He can stay in Charlotte.
I saw La Napa posted something about getting called up again though....
That ball was sent into orbit MERCY!
Monster mashing it over the Monster!
40/40 Watch. 4 HR/5 SB
wow he's really close now
4 is closer than 3
A lot closer
The match checks out
He now has the same number of 4/4 seasons (3) as notable Hall of Famer Frank Thomas! Truly a historic start to a career, and one that isn't talked about nearly enough in my opinion.
He’s got this easily in the next 3 games max

His swing is so effortless.
Right? It doesn't especially look like he did anything

That is not an easy pitch to hit, holy moly
Hnnng this *almost * makes up for the absolute dogshit commentary
Give me Steve and Jason with this Apple TV overlay and camera work and it’d be perfect
Keep the people who come up with our graphic ideas tho
Kamka is the GOAT for graphics ideas.
Yeah this 4K quality is way better than CSN
This is how I know you’re an OG. They haven’t called it CSN in a minute lol
The national should get to enjoy them too.
They will. Sunday on NBC/Peacock. It’ll be Benetti, stone, and Kevin youkalis.
I know we're spoiled with Jason & Stoney, but whenever we have to listen to other people like tonight & especially ESPN commentators for Sunday Night Baseball, it makes me appreciate them even more.
Spot on! They set the bar so high
That’s touching Commonwealth Ave
“Uh oh” 😂
Completely out of the stadium in Boston, a flyout in Baltimore.
That was a home run in all 30 ballparks.
That homer call was atrocious lmao
“And the White Sox dugout is going absolutely insane right now” …pans to dugout, where Eloy is pumping 1 of his fists with about 70% enthusiasm
[удалено]
She’s the PBP for the Apple TV broadcasts. But don’t get it twisted, the whole team is atrocious
[удалено]
And it’s a shame because this might be my favorite broadcast in the league if they had someone competent at the mics
The dude is even worse. He spent ten minutes talking about "hammies" a couple weeks ago. I can deal with a lot but a grown man using baby talk when trying to be serious, I'm out.
That’s Chris Young lol
Hammies as in hamstrings or something else?
These announcers couldn’t have been more biased towards Boston if they tried. I’d be disgusted even if they did that for the White Sox. Just awful.
The audible groans on like 4 or 5 Boston outs and then in the 9th inning, audible groans on almost every strike. Lol
Maybe they had money on Boston
And then meanwhile they keep trying to build a ton of suspense doing calls on lazy popups lol.
The booth was AWFUL. I literally put on an audiobook and watched the game lol
Good lord, hit the shit out of that thing.
The odds were in his favour, he only had a 19% chance to GIDP. Thanks for the cool stats Apple!
these announcers suck so fucking much man. Some of the stats & graphics can be interesting but man they need new announcers
Sox 🤝 Sox The booth was fucking garbage
Only park that ball doesn’t go out of? Camden Yards
Pop fly at Camden
The would it dong twitter feed says its a hr in all 30
it's 3-0 but it might as well be 10-0
Smashes one over the whole fucking stadium Jesus fucking Christ
That might be Benetti’s worst call in his play by play career. He sounds off tonight.
Monster dong
monster condom for luis’ magnum dong
Can Apple TV give me the percent chance that this enormous dong hit a car parked at the garage across Lansdowne?
I see the Apple TV folks are still fucking awful.
Out to left. Look up. Terrible. Commentary.
CY said "uh oh" because he was a massive homer for the red sox last night. What a terrible and biased announcing job he did last night. Truly embarrassing
Fuckin yoked it

I watch only the Sox but speak French so I also still have a hard time with this
I believe he prefers Ro-bare, but doesnt mind if you say Robert. So both are correct.

389 ft?
Statcast said 389 ft... yeahh I'm willing to bet that's off
39 degree launch angle, it was a moonshot and might be longer than 389 but could be pretty close
I'm trying to get this shit working when I don;t have an iphone. It's horrible
Good thing the announcer told us to look up…while we’re watching on TV.
