The presentation and simple score graphic is next level.

But my god the female announcer is terrible to listen to (Mets vs Nationals game). Talks and explains things way too much. The other announcer has no time to talk at all. I had to mute it.

Call me old fashioned, but I can't stand females on any sports broadcast.

I enjoyed the broadcast. The chick didn't bother me too much.

Well, I kind of hated the tiny graphic and it’s location. I could barely see the little dots for outs.

I don’t mind women sportscasters in general. And if they’re good, it shouldn’t matter. But this Katie chick sounded like a 13 year old that had never watched a baseball game in her life. That discussion about bring a glove to the park. Ugh. Awful.

Bases loaded at bat and we get a thumbnail view while they are showing highlights of other games, ridiculous

I appreciated the score graphic. It would be nice if that would is the future because it gets tiring watching a game like CNBC is presenting it. I can imagine the majority of viewers like following their fantasy players, but I rather concentrate on the game I’m watching.

It's funny because in the 9th they were lauding themselves, and you could tell they had been reading Social Media comments saying how bad they sucked.

I did some research. And found my answer. Apple should have known completely random banter is what Katie Nolan does best.

quote:

When fans could actually watch the game, some said they put it on mute due to the distracting, and sometimes blatantly off-topic commentary. Instead of focusing on the game, viewers said the announcers talked about squirrels, Japanese restaurant chain Benihana, and even Apple products. Others thought the commentators — a team made up of Melanie Newman, Chris Young, Hannah Keyser, Brooke Fletcher, Stephen Nelson, Hunter Pence, Katie Nolan, and Heidi Watney — came off as not having a lot of experience with baseball.

Zero chance I want to listen to a girl call baseball games. I don't care how knowledgeable they may actually be. Not interest in listening to women yammer on.

Katie Nolan didn't call anything. Nolan was there to ask the stupid girlfriend questions. She succeeded in spades.

I don't mind listening to a female as long as they are good at their craft.
