Baseball expressions that grate

[PATCO]

Sadly, with the death of Jerry Remy and the retirement of the beloved Dennis Eckersley, Red Sox Faithful are now saddled with Kevin Youkilils...aka broadcaster wannabe.

His incessant use of "right there" is worse than nails on a chalkboard. He also goes into such painful analysis of the strike zone and other over the top comments about either fielding or hitting, as to make the mute button a blessing. His most obnoxious however is indeed "right there".

Addtionally, at the beginning of last night's Red Sox game in Philly, a fan, while reaching for a ball, fell into the bullpen. He was carted away with injuries unknown. Odd, I thought that Youkilis would comment "I hope it's not a Red Sox player", then a pause followed by "or a coach". Geez Youk, how 'bout just hoping the best for whoever it was, not just eliminating any Red Sox personnel. Bush league at best!
