Honestly, yes. At least for a lot of those White Sox games last year, Hawk wasn't in booth for whatever reason, it was two other guys. Gary Thorne is 18+ games a year of ear aids.
Yeah I live in Maryland so unfortunately I get Sox games blacked out on extra innings as well, meaning I'm forced to watch with Orioles announcers, it's horrible.
Showalter and Thorne are the biggest douches in the league. They complain about all kinds of absurd ******** and make excuses for everything. I hate the Orioles more than any team in the league, Yankees included.
