Rollins is much better when working with Ben McDonald.

Lyn and Ben got a little goofy last night as well.


They do at times but personally I like them working together. Ben is all LSU but still is a very good analyst. He knows baseball like nobody else.
His interview last season with Kim Mulkey ( you know, Kramer Robertson's mom), was classic. Those two going back and forth had me laughing for days. I would love to watch it again if it is available somewhere.

Brent Mussburger, Al Michaels, and John Smoltz were going to call the game tonight instead, but they backed out.

It's college baseball. This is about as good, locally, as it gets.

Just because he loves and knows the game of baseball doesn't mean he's good at calling it. Johnny Jones loves and knows the game of basketball. Doesn't mean he's any good at coaching it. There are a lot of people, past, present and future, who know the game at baseball who would be horrible play-by-play guys and/or color analysts. Rollins is awful. McDonald and Rantz actually save the broadcasts from being worse.


Exactly

I enjoy their broadcasts. I get a good laugh at them.
If you don't like them sync up the radio and listen to them.
I find the radio crew puts me to sleep.

May as well throw in Jordy with his "Rocco's PoBoys big boy" saying as well.

The moronic stupidity never ends as the know nothings take shots at announcers who work for Cox. Both are classy people while losers take pot shots at them. Some of you sports bar hero critics are an embarrassment and make me sick.

So Lynn is good at that with his corny arse jokes? I like Ronnie. Lynn used to ump where in from and well, h was pretty good, but this isn't his forte.
I can comment on that because I know what good is. Chris Blair is good. Jim was good.
