Last month Dustin Pedroia got on Don Orsillo for not having a home run call. Announcer Boy has been trying different calls since then and tried a new one when Pedey went yard last night:
Pedroia was informed that Orsillo experimented with a “Ball gone” eruption as he rounded the bases. The second baseman offered a cautious endorsement.
“Better than the old stuff that he was bringing, which was not very good,” said Pedroia. “Good, good for Don. I’m always all over him, because I hear all these other announcers and they have their ‘look at me’ calls and stuff, and Don is pretty boring. We’ve got to step up his game a little bit. Nobody really gets on him. So, that’s kind of my job, to wear him out a little bit.”
Is there anyone associated with the team that Pedroia has not joked about? I still think his best one was when he said he was benched because he told Terry Francona that he looked like Corrado Soprano.
