On Situational Hitting

I live in the New York area, which means I get to watch a lot of Mets games on TV. Their announcing crew is well-publicized and somewhat of an acquired taste- I really enjoy them, but some people find them a little much. Whether you like them or hate them, though, they’re very different than the rotating Cardinals announcing team… most of the time. There’s one instance, though, where the two broadcasting teams are carbon copies of each other. Scene: Matt Carpenter at the plate, runner dancing off of second base. The pitcher reads the signs, wipes his brow, and delivers.
