Rendon (pronounced Rendin by the Tigers pbp man) singles and then scores on a McClouth double.

[Mr Clean]

Already 1-0 Nats.  Rendon (single) scores on McLouth double.

[PC]

He pronounces Lobaton correctly.

[Mr Clean]

Jordan Ks Cabrera, which is nice.

That is how it's pronounced in English. I have no idea where this tex-mex version of Rend(own) came from. Now I've seen a couple times they've used an "ó" in his name which is just stupid.

[Slateman]

No Ryan Zimmerman. Again.

Maybe because he's Tex-Mex, and he gets to say how his name is pronounced?

[Ace_1106]

Or maybe he didn't? He just went along with it.

[GburgNatsFan]

You have evidence of that? He pronounces his name Rendin?

Or maybe he didn't? He just went along with it.

[mitlen]

Theismann/Dorsett/Rendon   

It's all good.

[Squab]

You have evidence of that? He pronounces his name Rendin?

There was an article that said something along those lines not too long ago.

[skippy1999]

Some people get seriously pissed off when a person incorrectly says a Hispanic name or even phrase    
I'd like to hear how Anthony pronounces it now though. 

[Ace_1106]

If I didn't I wouldn't be telling you "he just went along with it". And yes that is how WE pronounce our name in English. Frankly, I don't care how it's pronounced I was just simply stating the Tigers pbp guy wasn't incorrect. They've been doing that since high school so we've grown on it and sometimes use it that way ourselves. I just hope this "ó" thing doesn't become a trend.

[GburgNatsFan]

Seriously? Bob and FP have been saying it wrong???

I stand corrected.

Okay. Thanks. Maybe someone should tell our play by play and color guys.

I believe the sentiment was that it's cool either way. I tried to find it, but I can't.

[Ace_1106]

Lol it's fine however they want to say it. Neither is correct or incorrect I guess since it is a Spanish word. Just please don't change the spelling lol.

I always said Rendin; but since everything is Rendown I assumed that's how it was said.  You're saying that he says Rendin? 

[skippy1999]

Yea I'm confused too, how does he say it?

[mitlen]

I simply wanna call him "Hitman".

[Ace_1106]

Rendin is how he says it. I agree mitlen.

[skippy1999]

I simply wanna call him "Hitman".

LOL I'm totally playing it safe and going with that from now on

[skippy1999]

Rendin is how he says it. I agree mitlen.

Thanks
