I thought the derby was fun but can we finally retire that muttering blob that used to be Chris Berman?

I think Joe is pretty good.

But, I'm really impressed with Jessica Mendoza! She really knows the game - Refreshing to see.

I had almost given up on female announcers or analysts since that woman was assigned to a certain number of SEC football games. TERRIBLE!

imo joe buck is fine...he tends to err on the understated side of announcing, which i enjoy more than the over-the-top scream your lung out announcing style.

one thing that irks me is with all the analytics and game data available now some analysts would go overboard with quoting data and statcasts etc. hey you're the color guy, keep it light tell some anecdotes about what's going on with the players. i have google if i wanna dive deep into the stats i can do it on my own time, when i'm on the couch i just wanna be entertained...don't need you to regurgitate what the intern has been doing an hour before game time.

We got to go this year. It was awesome. For my money, no one does All Star like baseball. It has been a wonderful time.
