The week of the All-Star break began with ESPN self-ordained macho man jerk Pat McAfee doing the Ted Kluszewski look (what’s the matter, McAfee, they couldn’t get you a full wifebeater in All-Star colors?) and making the Home Run Derby WWE-style intros all about him instead of the contestants (this clown has millions of followers on various platforms, which once again proves H.L. Mencken had it right about the taste of the American people). It may have been understandable that ESPN wanted to do some cross-promotion, but why would baseball allow itself to be very publicly paired with a psuedo-sport everybody knows is rigged?
A strange week of baseball, White Sox included
