Awesome British Broadcast Calls from Yankees-Red Sox in London! 

Clayton Funke That commentator is Irish.

njheals, the thing is that would also be true for some people in the USA as well, and especially in the Twin Cities where the Twins had games that lasted 17 and 18 innings this season.

You sir ar the reason Fish n Chips is popular here stateside. I love London and its people!!

@@user-on2ys9jr6t You are right! And his name is Craig Doyle, who normally presents Rugby on BT Sport. Simply amazing from him.

That's the statement you wish you had come up with.

Probably comments on a lotof Sports

onetwothree123 guy is called Darren Fletcher and is BT Sports main football (soccer) commentator, sure he’s worked NFL before

He didn't talk a lot about what was actually happening - left it to the American (presumably ex-pro) guy that did the technical stuff. You Americans seemed to like him in the comments though, so maybe he would look into doing more of it

onetwothree123 you could tell it felt awkward for him not to say “six-nil” during the first inning

He was great yankee fan here in ny amazing

He is indeed

Lee Everett yeah he does bt sport for football

he also does boxing commentary for bt sports

he is. very famous. very professional. now if we could have gotten MARTIN TYLER to do it. Americans have no idea how amazing that guy is

If Martin Tyler was commentator that would be awesome.

ChisG "Whether it's been with the glove, or been with the bat, he's been absolute box office"

I saw the London cubs cardinals game and the whole time people were saying they had no idea what was going on lol, same thing as the superbowl, I know a few that tried to watch it but they knew absolutely nothing about the game and could barely follow along 😂 love baseball and football but before I knew my stuff I remember watching a college football game and having no clue what was going on besides the general idea of gaining yards

So a splendid time was had by all?

Everything in that comment has been said in the Premier league except keeps it mum

"Not the gobby sort, keeps it mum" What language are you speaking, dude? :-D

Jeff Jeffery it means he’s not a loudmouth

Extra topical this year lol

Great idea

I would sign this petition

@@austinharrington8820 me either!!!

Casey Lee lol nice stole my comment smh

Yeah it is!!!

try saying anything on american TV

Try

Canceled lol

If any American broadcaster talked about beer like that they would be pulled off the air. There’s a reason why the drinking age in this country is 21. In my opinion it should be 18. If you’re old enough to vote, buy a gun, and go to war you’re also old enough to drink a beer. The drinking age was raised back to 21 in 1984 over federal highway funding.

There's a saying. Americans are more open to violence, Brits are more open to everything else.

My favorite call!

LOL

Only us Brits can come up with this amazing piece of commentary.

It is a damn shame that Covid cancelled our chances of pounding the Cubs in London.

Good call sir!

Or cricket

Hahaha yeah feels like it’s kickball or something 🤔

@@TheAngryBrave I've actually never heard a cricket broadcast (Don't think I've ever watched a game) so I'll take your word for it

@@MrNotCreatlve cricket is very similar to baseball, but different in it's own way.

@@TheAngryBrave sounds nothing like cricket commentary

Last season or next ? Its July.

Logan Feeney tea is gross

I was joking to make the joke better

Okay Alex Morgan

@@adamlynch9153 US Coffee or Cawfee is terrible

Robert Ryan that’s why I drink Colombian

And they don't even *play* baseball in Britain.

Chip Chip Cheerio.....Brits sound great...Thats why i love the Premier League Football ...

The Brits are better than Joe Buck

It's definitely different, which is refreshing. We're just used to American broadcasters

Ruben T well we do. We have a league, I’m on the Bristol Badgers, but it’s more for fun rather than competitive like in America.

Welcome to Cricket! Bat hitting Ball sounds like that

Think it was something to do with like no wind at all in the stadium they said

Darren Fletcher, BT Sport commentator for the Premier League

Well said. I'm impressed too

To be fair, Chetwynd was a GB catcher for a long time, and was an analysis guy on TV and Radio before this. Fletcher... well I have to say I was really surprised by him.

Big Budduh --- British commentators are generally better than American commentators at every sport. Even British documentary narrators are better than Americans.

Boston didn't enjoy it, but who cares about Boston anyways

I agree, as opposed to it being a high action sport, like Hockey or Football (both kinds), it's more of a stressful bench gripper with its constant pitcher/batter duels and explosive/quick action.

@Ulysses432 Football/soccer games can be really low-scoring, so it might not be a big obstacle.

Yes, a million times yes!!!!! ......can't stand Joe Buck! I like the 'long bomb" description and the John Oliver accent.

yes

He's made World Series games seem dull. Replace him now.

Imagine a British dude broadcasting THE FALL CLASSIC.

Nestor Hernandez you can’t have him

This is said by almost every British commentator

Yeah he’s a premier league commentator normally, I’ve always took him for granted until I saw this lol

Ahhh, the he’s English actually, there’s a big difference between 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿, on the culture and accents, I just don’t know why the Americans call everybody British from UK

​@@michaelpeng9993 They don't. It's only ever the English that Americans call British. You never hear them refer to a Scottish person as British. The one that bugs me is when one of my fellow American's will say someone has a "British accent". There are so many different accents in Britain... which one?!

@@michaelpeng9993 he's still British lmao

it sounds out of place tho

@@rileyosullivan1941 It probably doesn't sound out of place for me because I watch so much European football/soccer that I'm used to the voices. But I get where you are coming from.

@@Bodhi594 I watch every liverpool game and a lot of champions league games. it just doesnt sound right

@@rileyosullivan1941 Dude I watched almost all the Liverpool games this year. What a great season that was. I wish Arsenal could get their act together. That club has so much potential. Maybe they get Zaha, that would be nice. Manchester United are a disaster. SMH.

@@Bodhi594 im a liverpool fan who are you a fan of

He did great on the first try. He deserves another shot.

I wonder if the toughest critic was Darren himself. He did awesome.

That was a smashing call. Well said.

It's the Olympic Stadium from 2012, it's held Football, Rugby, American Football and now baseball games. Ironically I watched the US Rugby team play there in 2015 :)

@@hammerhiem75 Oh ok cool..so it was already an established stadium for other sports..cool apprec8 the info...))

Malela9 --- Or he could be a fan of baseball, lived in the US or just watched a lot.

British Broadcasters are more " excitable" than US ones

Can't hurt to do more homework. He gets an A plus. Joe Buck. F

@@Liofa73 Darren Fletcher is a big fan of American Sports. Would love to hear him call an NFL game... but BT Sport don’t have the rights to show the NFL.

@@Liofa73 did homework. I've announced and been called top 3 in USATF PA announcing, and I may not know much about some athletes. I've also announced football and basketball, and don't like football (not soccer) and could care less about basketball these days And the spectators literally thought I LOVED all the sports. Nope. It's a job, and our job is to entertain and inform

That is how they create an atmosphere

It must be a grass is greener on the other side kinda thing lol because I always think US announcers sound way more enthusiastic and create a better environment for the game

Nope - meat pie, chips and beer. Well it is for me, as I am from the UK.

steak pie and a pint of stella and i’ll be right as rain.

Or Pasty and Cider if you're from the West Country.

Specifically, chicken balti pie and IPA. Typical West Midlands & Warwickshire fare.

Seinfeld in the old Amex commercial: I came down the apples and pears and said what is this, the tea interval?

London for 3 Hours. World is a bit more indifferent

Hahaha youre right!!! Thats im hearing

Unfortunately never gonna happen with the 150 plus games played each season. Japan is trying to but can't for traveling reasons 😭

*Dislike Button* Never say never -Well they can always travel around the world like there doing in London it would promote baseball around the world Dodgers vs Giants in Berlin Germany would be awesome!!! ⚾️

That’s the dream dude imagine an MLB with teams in 4-5 countries. Netherlands Japan USA Canada Mexico. Would be badass

How about an American cricket league ? Are you OK with that ?

@@josephonwhidbey I'd watch TBH on Willow HD

They are not really, but he was a good anouncer for a game he did not know

Yeah it’s so great. Hopefully we can have a one world government soon. That would be sooooo awesome

@@robertryan7204 Nah, I think he did his research. Did it very well.

@@philmccracken179 Chill out it's not a one world government. It's just Americanization. Americanization is good for everyone.

That's hilarious.

Drew that comes from ireland and from a gaelic football commentary in the early nineties.The host is irish and it comes from they "their won't be a cow milked in west clare for a week" after county clare had won there first championship in nearly 100 years and the commentator was from there. Obviously the quote had to be modified for london ,not very many cows in london.

chewyismycopilot --- The baseball diamond was floating above the football pitch...

They did the same for the Sydney Cricket Ground several years back

agreee joe buck is terrible

Emmanuel Alejandro Darren Fletcher he’s BT’s main commentator for premier league and champions league. Tbh he’s better at baseball than football (soccer)

@@olliekleiner214 I'm surprised that Fletcher got the MLB broadcaster mantra down. Wish I can watch the British side of the London series. All we get here are clips and highlights.

Emmanuel Alejandro there’s a little bit of highlights of both games on bt sport channel alongside a video where Fletcher goes through his thoughts on commentating on MLB

It’s Darren fletcher from bt, he’s absolutely brilliant

Emmanuel Alejandro it’s not hard, watch a game or two, write down a few new phrases and do your homework. He’s been commentating for years so the rest comes naturally

British are never negative, part of their culture

It is wonderful that more American sports are coming over to England. We do enjoy your culture, plus it brings out country together. I hope it also gives Americans an insight to us Brits.

Some Americas working mlb are so ignorant not knowing that baseball has been professionally played since 100 years in country's like Holland and Italy differently countries like uk where it still does not exists

Chip Caray says "Walloped" all the time on Braves TV

And it came true. Never disappointed

Yeah he's awesome. I've always loved him.

David Babitt The man that said that was irish though and its modified from a famous quote by an irish sports commentator in the early 90s ,just substituted child and fed for cows milked ,which is not really applicable to london
