About Last Night: ugh, ROOT, be better

Ex-players in the booth are often hit-or-miss and depend heavily on personal taste, but I am always pretty happy when Dan Wilson shows up on the broadcast, as he did last night. Personally, I enjoy Wilson’s approach. He doesn’t talk a ton, spending most of his time noticing, formulating his thoughts, and then delivering an observation. Last night during the fifth inning, he went all the way to a 2-2 count on the first batter without saying a word, leaving Aaron Goldsmith to fill in the play-by-play, to the point where, in listening back to it, I wondered if my audio feed had cut out.
