I'm sitting here yelling at my TV on some of the outside the zone strikes he's calling. Can't hit those pitches with a 6 foot bat.
And what's with that "got him!" call on swinging strike 3? A bit over the top, IMO.
Smitty at first base is going to call a runner out one of these days while F3 is dropping the ball. Weak looking mechanics as well.

Alll of the above, plus "THAT'S A CHECK!" when what he really means to be saying is "that's a swing" or "that's an offer." He thinks "check" is synonymous with "swing," when it's the opposite.
That one was my favorite.
