I’ve listened to almost every mlb tv team the last 5 years and in one night , Len and Stoney are right up there battling for the best. The Giants announcers are still top notch but tonight WSox telecast w Len and stone will Give them a run for their money. This is sooooooooo good tonight - I hope the Wsox see it too and do it more often. Make the switch perm but I’m sure contracts they can’t do that. |

Benetti is a legit, if dorky, professional play by play guy. Given his lifelong Sox fandom I’ll take him any day over Kasper. |

Yeah, you get a local guy who grew up a Sox fan, you don't throw that away. |

Stone can say the dumbest things. “Abreu is 3 for 17 against Shaw, but that doesn’t mean anything here.” |

I've said it for years, our media says Stone is the greatest. He's not. Yeah, that was a dumb thing to say. It means something. Doesn't mean he won't get a hit. But when you're 3-17, it sure as hell means something. |

Stone's maybe looking at it situationally from the pitcher's perspective: tie game, bottom of the 8th on the road. Shaw might own Abreu career but Shaw needs one more out to finish the hold and give his team a shot at taking the lead in the top of the 9th. Elevate your pitching to the situation rather than ease up b/c you're tossing to a guy who's .176 career against you. |

I think Stone is pretty good. He must be good because his personality is insufferable. |

I liked Len and Stone together and also dug McKnight and DJ on the radio. Benetti can go do all the basketball he wants as far as I'm concerned. |

Post subject: | Re: Len Kasper and Steve Stone tv team |
stone is great at knowing what a pitcher and catcher are thinking in terms of sequences for specific hitters. great insights. But hes falling into the bad Hawk habit of hyperbole for a lot of players that theyre "the best ever at..." or "might be the greatest i've seen at..." that shit can get stowed away any time, please. |

Always heard that they put the SF team above. Ever since Vin Scully retired, the SF team has always been nearly at the top. Kind of like the MLB version of Summerall-Madden. But Len and Steve could give them all a run for the money. |
