many games where they never set a decent a balance between crowd and announcer mics, games where one announcer was markedly louder than the other, games with clipped mics like today. Too often get the impression someone set  board and went to play video games for two hours. 

It could be some automated system

True -  computers don't get embarrassed when they do a bad job.

I notice really slipshod audio, and other things happening when I watch cycling races on Peacock. I get the feeling that somebody with connections got their kid to job as an unpaid intern and they don’t know what they’re doing.

Last year for an eight day race, for the first seven days, they had an obvious misspelling on the opening graphics of one of the two major announcers for the first seven days and it’s like nobody cared enough to change it and I’m sure it was mentioned to them.

There’s a lot of slave ship stuff going on with these big companies and they don’t care.

They’re probably doing it on the cheap. 

AI?

A couple of lifetimes ago they usually had an audio engineer in the booth. I’m assuming they hired someone local for spring training.

Knowing Audicy’s (radio rights holder) cheapness. It’s probably a combination of no one in the booth and relying on some local staff member of the staff to set it once and forget it. Board ops back in Detroit, forget about it

What's better than Dan Dickerson announcing Tiger baseball on a sunny Saturday afternoon?

I'm surprised Pena is on the radio.

You made a good pitch, but….

I just have to tip my cap in this case.

Mize looks like he's lost some weight.
