"That was a good pitch."

 

"I didn't like that pitch."

 

"That was a good play."

 

"I like the way he played that ball."

 

"something something unintentionally condescending towards Rich something something I played baseball you know?"

 

 

he did pretty good interviewing fans...

 

I wish he would of never lost that job

 

 

When he started saying something about hitting better with the same handed pitcher right before Bour got that hit of Justin Wilson I lost it. He literally was making crap up out of thin air. Not that he wasn't already.

 

 

Something no one seemed to mention last night...

 

Preston said that hitting coaches would tell him that a pop up to 2B with a runner on 3rd & less than 2 outs was way better than a hot smash to the 3B. Did anyone catch that after Ozuna's AB in the 8th inning? 

 

 

Without Hutton,I just don't care who replacing him,maybe due to English was not my first language so I could ignored what that guy said easily.

Preston doesn't make any sense even if you know English fluently. He speaks "Prestonese"

I missed it.

 

But another gem and although Rich said it incorrectly first was when they were clearly talking about "Petco Park" but they said Comerica and Preston just ran with it.

 

 

Imagine tommy going crazy in the bottom of the 9th. We all miss you,sir.

Many times after a statement, I would just say, "Thanks, Preston", as I imagine that is what Rich was thinking.

 

He was pretty much talking down to him whenever he could, and I don't think he realized it. There was a point where Rich even said "I'm just here to listen." I almost died, because you could tell he pronounced it as though he was genuine, but he was irritated.

 

Also, did anyone else notice how Rich sort of ended up doing more of the color commentating? Preston continuously sounded like a third commentator who was field-side. Almost as though Rich was getting the scoop from Minervini. 

 

 

Yeah, Preston was bad. Really bad. It was obvious too. Like worse than ever bad. Like now that he's actually part of the play by play team he tried even harder and got even worse.

And did you see how Rich would look when Preston would try and put together a sentence while the cam was in the booth? Rich looked disgusted

 

 

He is fucking terrible. Jesus Christ. 

 

Honestly, at this point just try to find a way to get Leiter and Perez to rotate. Preston seems like a great guy but he just is not a good commentator. 

 

Or they can do the right thing and bring Hutton back.

So have any idea why FOX SPORT liked him so much as a color analyst ?
