These announcers are horrible hunter is trying to walk away but hundly keeps wanting to run his mouth. The call was correct also

[darinlegore]

ROOT "homer announcer" was wrong. Hunter W turned and tried to walk down right field line away from player. Player followed him, and started pointing FIRST. You guys so want to be loved by home team viewers, you cannot tell the truth or be objective?

[Koudey]

He swung, Hunter swung back. Players think they're hot shit. No.

[vpartha]

These biased announcers need to shut up. Hunter has been around baseball since before he came out of his mother's womb, given that his dad was a well-known and respected MLB umpire and even ran a blue school in Florida. Not to mention that Hunter made the right call here. Keep doing you Hunter!!

it was a swing Hunter should of walked away.
