Yankees fans need to hear one of the most hated songs before and after the second game of ALDS against the Cleveland Guardians.
The broadcast crew for the New York Yankees against the Cleveland Guardians ALDS series isn’t bad at all. Bob Costas plays game after game, and Ron Darling is the color commentator. Nobody has any complaints there.
TBS had to ruin its goodwill with Yankees fans, though, when a guest commentator was announced for pre- and post-game matches. Carlos Correa of the former Houston Astros.
Correa was a member of the Astros who was accused – and found guilty – of using improper means to steal signals and relay real-time information to speculators on their way to winning the world championship. Fans are speculating that Jose Altuve’s epic home run against Aroldis Chapman (which sent the Astros to the World Championships in 2019) included some poor play as well.
Yankees fans will never get over the Houston Astros signal-stealing scandal
It’s bad enough that Yankees fans have suffered by listening to Carlos Beltran – also complicit in the signal-stealing scandal – this year on YES. Not only was he part of the scandal, but he was…bad with the microphone.
Now they have to listen to Correa comment on a match he has no legitimate connection to before and after the match.
Yankees fans put on a good fit and some thanked the skies for having YES Network for pre- and post-match coverage.
It would be very embarrassing if TBS decided to take it even further and bring it back to ALCS, where the Astros and Yankees might meet.
