Well, it should be pronounced Alec Box, but whatever. Hawthorne does many things worse than his pronunciation of our baseball stadium.

Listen to him during a night game thats either delayed to start or stopped during the game. He will be very bitter and complain how the game will end late.

After 3 weeks he figured out that our third "sacker's" name is pronounced "E"barra. He emphasizes the crap out of that too.

He also says "LX Bregman and LX edward". Surely someone has told him this is incorrect.
