Great game, boring Cubs announcers. Give me Harrelson the Homer any day over these stiffs.
I saw him bail out on a time out and never pointed to either the catcher or batter. Announcers didn't know who called time. They even mentioned it on the air that an umpire will point to either the batter or catcher, but that it wasn't done in this instance. You must have saw something I didn't.
