Wake |
Over the weekend, it became readily apparent that former Red Sox hero
Tim Wakefield was pretty darned good at game commentary. Not only did Wake outshine his booth-mate
Steve Lyons, he was actually more informative and entertaining than play-by-play guy
Dave O'Brien. The blunt honesty of Wakefield's comments was so refreshingly different that it
really stood out. He was speaking his mind—no matter who it might potentially offend (including team ownership). If NESN really wants to enhance lagging ratings, give us more
regular helpings of Wake during the season! Oh, and by the way, NESN, the clunky "box-in-box" replay you're touting is embarrassingly amateurish. If you
really want to impress fans on the technological front—how about
Super Slow Mo replay—like the
rest of the baseball world
already has!
