The camera work and graphics package was great! The announcing team was abysmal at best. You see a player get hit in the face, benches clear and the pitcher leave the game after two pitches. It took more than 5 minutes to learn that he was ejected, and that's because they cut to the retired ump giving us his take on the ejection. They also never mentioned that warnings were given to both benches -- no mention at all! Instead we listened to Young give his take on why hitting players in the head should not lead to ejections - for a good two minutes. Melanie Newman sounded like a Nat homer for 3 innings, which should not happen on a national broadcast. Also, she NEVER stopped talking and let significant plays pass by unmentioned why she rattled on about non-game specific bs. Last thing that sucked, was still being in-studio in the 8th inning telling us about other game highlights, while the Nats got out of the inning/ended the mets rally. It was busch league, at best!
