...goes to Tim McCarver for his distinguished work during the ninth inning of today's Fox broadcast of the Yankees-Angels game:
"Sliding really well with that slider."
...commenting on the off-speed pitch of Los Angeles closer Francisco Rodriguez during his at-bat to Gary Sheffield.
"You could call this match-up 'Rod-Rod'."
...one batter later when Francisco Rodriguez faced Alex Rodriguez.
Despite a late Angels rally, Francisco Rodriguez gagged, blew the save and lost the game 8-7, proving that not even a good closer can overcome the bad mojo of Tim McCarver's commentary.
