I think Boston Red Sox player development consultant Tommy Harper summed up what all of Red Sox Nation and probably millions of others were thinking during last night’s Red Sox/Yankees game:
“When you’re watching ESPN, with three in the booth, they talk so damn much and they were right in the middle of a conversation when they screamed, ‘There he goes.’ I think Jon Miller was talking at the time and then he screamed that Ellsbury’s going. The cameras weren’t on him, so by the time we saw it Jacoby was almost at the plate. With so many cameras, they did show the replay and you could see the whole thing. I got a good angle on the replay.”
