Gameday Audio

This is the last time you hear me bitch about listening to the Red Sox on MLB.com. I tried listening to the Sox -Reds game last night and I couldn’t take it, the sound randomly cutting out was too much to bear. I then took a shot at listening to the Cincinnati broadcast of the game, but while it wasn’t cutting out, the announcers sounded like they were moving closer then further away from the mikes, The volume was up and down and about as distracting as the WEEI sound drop outs. For a second I thought maybe all this was me, but funny thing though, the volume of the commercials was perfect.

Tonight, I tried to listen to the Red Sox broadcasters again, and the game sounded fine. Might have been because there were some different people in the booth. One of the regular announcers was out because of a sick relation or something and that changed something just enough that there were almost no sound cut outs.

Next time the broadcast gets crappy I’m going to call and cancel even if there is no refund. If I keep the service I will be tempted to try and listen and then just be pissed at the quality.
