Could he learn to correctly pronounce players' names?

Instead of Cristian GUZ-man, he pronounces it Christian guz-MAN.
Instead of JOR-ge Posada, he pronounces it jor-GE Posada.

...The list goes on.

Anybody else irked by this?

Not I, since I don't know how to pronounce them either. I just think he talks too much.

I pronounce Jorge> Whore-Hey

But you pronounce it with the emphasis on the first part, "Whore"

He places it on the second part, the "Hey"

I turned the music up on my computer so I don't have to hear him or Morgan.

But I can still see.

Hunter gets thrown out trying to stretch a double into a triple. Then in the same inning Koskie gets thrown out trying to stretch a single into a double.

Didn't look too smart to me when you're down 7-1.

Good God.

Hunter caught a ball then hit the wall and it fell out of his glove over the fence. Homer.

Steinbrenner truly has sold his soul to the devil.

Maybe he thought he was getting the soul of George Costanza?
