Yep. Enberg is an absolute homer and has his head up his arse when calling Padres games. He runs his mouth no matter if he knows what he is talking about or not.

I would take announcers a little more seriously when they criticize legitimately blown calls if they knew the rules and knew when umpires got something right and acknowledged it. The problem is that 99.9 percent of them don't have the first clue about rules, mechanics, or how situations are handled, but love to convince all the lame-brained fans how great they are and how much they know. We know where the idiot fans get their "knowledge": From clowns like Enberg.
