What did you expect from him?


89-91 MPH
Flat fastball
Lots of contact

Is that what is happening today?

I'm starting to think that's his scouting report.

Nailed it.

This Kalas guy ain't doing it for me. Slight lisp and very wooden robotic delivery. He makes Robert Ford sound natural.

It's strange to not hear Brownie even though Ashby called a lot of games. Brownie was the voice of the Astros for so long, it's gonna take a while to get used to a new voice.

It's the lisp that really bothers me. Did they actually listen to this guy's tapes or just say hey this is Harry Kalas's son!

Fiers is done for the day. His fastball didn't look very good. Was getting squared up well. Curve ball had some solid break to it.

This is the biggest turd you've ever laid in the DAT. Seriously. Such a shitty move by you...


Now all I can do is focus on this dude's S's and L's.

Christ almighty.

You can't deny the lisp. Sounds like a worse version of Seth payne.

We'd be amiss on this first 2017 Astros broadcast to not pour one out for the intrigue and Ashby After Dark.

Maybe this Kalas guy will occasionally sexually harass Julia to remind us of the good times.

To be fair, we don't know what Harris' injury is yet. Hopefully just a blister.

More along the lines of his schtick. He has got to be tired of it by now.

Harris didn't look happy. Also, if it were serious, I don't think he'd be sitting on the bench not talking to trainers for an extended period of time.
