Hoffarth: TBS fails to ask Mattingly about Eithier screaming match

Looks like there were quite a few instances of failures to communicate in Friday’s NLCS Game 5 between the Dodgers and Mets.

The first was when a live camera pointed down at the Dodgers dugout caught an animated discussion between a visibly upset Andre Ethier and manager Don Mattingly in the bottom of the third inning. TBS analysts Ron Darling and Cal Ripken guessed it had to do with Mattingly not being too happy with Ethier’s inability to move a runner into scoring position.

Moments later, TBS reporter Sam Ryan was asked to do a taped interview with Mattingly, taking place between the bottom of the third and top of the fourth inning.
