One of the TV Announcers Today......

[More of #34]

Harper was at bat and the announcer said, "The Cubs are pitching to Harper, the man, not Harper, the legend.  After which, Harper hit his homerun.  How sweet it was!!!

Nice.

I had Charlie and Dave on for the duration of the game (via the At Bat app); they were actually about 15 seconds behind the tv broadcast but it was still worth it.

IIRC Ernie Johnson, after the HR, said something to the effect of "the legend continues".

I don't remember hearing the man/legend part, but what I do recall him saying is that if Harper was completely healthy they would have a better pitcher facing him.

I was wondering what would've happened if Lind had made it to 2B on his hit. Normally they would've walked Harper. But would they have walked the current Harper?

Down here in OBX, the TV schedule is showing this afternoon's Nats game vs Diamondbacks is at 4pm and being shown on both MASN and Fox Sports 1.  Does anyone else see this game will be shown on both networks ?  I thought it was custom for MASN not to show the game when it's on another network.

I think if it's on regular Fox or ESPN, they don't.   For FS1 or MLB TV, MASN does their regular thing.

ESPN and baseball........ugh.  I hate watching the Sunday night Nats games.  There is nothing I like about the travesty that is their production.

MASN is broadcasting today so I assume it will be blacked out on FS1.  I could be wrong.

The Nats home page shows "FS1, Fox Deportes, MASN".
