Today was my first day listening to her on the radio.  I thought all the people complaining were exaggerating….

 

 

Nope. 

She is worse on radio than TV.  I know who the hitter is after you say it with the first two pitches

Melanie Newman didn't know a runner couldn't score from 1B on a ground rule double last year. I this this happened during an Apple TV game when she was still calling games for them.

Probably a major reason her and the other woman were let go.

Does anyone remember in Toronto when the Blow Jays left their tar wrap close to the field of play and Earl Weaver would not let the O's take the field until the tar wrap was moved further from the field because Earl was afraid of an injury, the Umps and Earl refused to budge, so the game was forfeited 9-0 to the Blow Jays?

Yep, and we were in a pennant race at the time too.

I was legit confused as to what was happening on the field like 5 separate times.  It actually made me realize how challenging that job is how some folks are incredibly talented at describing live action.
