GDT 9/2/22: Braves vs Fish - A Start for Ozuna

[msstate7]

I was 5 minutes into the game. And it’s not just his name, it’s other Latin names too.

These guys make me want to flip the channel to Chip

Watching braves on iPad, college football on tv, and listening to HS football on radio

Is the chick saying Al-con-trot-ta.

My guess (I have the game on but not really listening to the announcing) is people are used to it being “Al-con-terruh” maybe they’re enunciating by rolling the R.

Eww. An 0-2 single to Wendle is silly, Charlie.

Yeah. She might be saying it right. I just can’t quite hear what she is saying.

I don’t like these guys because there seems to be no flow to their announcing. Just seem to ramble about random things.

Earlier it sounded like someone trying to roll the R but failing...Alcantannuh.

how is it overpronunciation?

I remember when Jon Miller got criticized for pronouncing Betemit’s name
properly. Everyone else was saying “Beh-tuh-mitt”. And he personally asked Wilson and he was told it’s actually “Beh-tuh-mee (silent T)”. People thought Miller was botching Wilson’s name and he told Miller he never has heard it said correctly so he thanked him for it.

They probably did the same with Sandy.

Not to toot my own horn but here goes...I know what natural Spanish speakers sound like and I've been told by numerous native speakers that I have no trace of a "gringo" accent. Believe me when I tell you they're overdoing it.

They each pronounce it differently. One of the girls drops the "l".

Nats tie Mets 3-3 in 6th

What the heck is my phone ghost posting

 

[USMA76]

I sure do enjoy watching MHII ply his trade in centerfield.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Thought that was a gapper off the bat

Apple taking over

 

[USMA76]

Thought that was a gapper off the bat

The thought crossed my mind, as well.

 

[USMA76]

Not good optics in plunking a guy who took you deep earlier especially when you're a pitcher of Alcantara's caliber. That said, I do think the pitch was unintentional.

 

[Hudson2]

TDA hit. Let’s hit one of theirs

 

[thethe]

Harris is going to generate so much surplus value over his contract....

 

[msstate7]

Harris is more Acuna than Ronald

 

[TURBO]

Harris might be good guys
