Every baseball broadcaster has a different approach to calling games from the booth. Some are experts at judging the ball off the bat and prefer to keep an eye on the game action in front of them. Others might use the game monitor a bit more, particularly at ballparks with press boxes up high (looking at you, Nationals Park).
But if you’re going to use the monitor, just hope that the camera operator is following the ball.
That didn’t exactly happen during Wednesday’s game in Houston.
