The 2 things about the announcers that stuck out in my mind were:

1: When they forgot how many outs there were, and called a ground out to second as a possible double play when we had 2 outs.

2: The 8th inning, when Beckett gave up a hit, they were trying to sound like they actually knew something about the sport. Saying that because the ball wasn't spinning as fast as an earlier pitch, that Beckett was "starting to faulter". Then he goes and throws one hellova slider, and they're speechless. I mean, the pitch had the lefty batter FROZEN because it looked like it was inside, until it hooked back in over the strike zone for a called 3rd strike. It was a masterpiece to see.
