    I wouldn’t say people hate her. For me personally I don’t dislike her personally. She may be a very nice human being irl, but in terms of being a play by play, she’s not good, at all. She doesn’t know what a ground rule double is. She doesn’t know the outfield positions. These are very simple baseball things that she doesn’t know. That’s a problem. It’s not me saying female announcers suck in general. I personally think Doris Burke is a very good broadcaster. But the A’s announcer specifically is just not fit for the job. U gotta know the sport to announce it and it doesn’t seem like she does. Plus, it’s also a bit dumb to say people dislike her bc she’s a woman. I’m sure some people do, but I think the majority of people just don’t like the way she broadcasts. It’s the same thing with Joe Buck. Tons of people hate on that man bc he often times makes very unenthusiastic calls in very big games and seems to show clear bias on nationally televised games. So clearly it’s not just bc she’s a woman. Granted Ik some people say she sucks simply bc of her gender, I’ve seen comments even say women shouldn’t be broadcasting at all which I think is stupid. However the majority of people seem to dislike her simply bc she’s just not good at her job. That’s my take

    • @harrykargenian5013
      @harrykargenian5013 2 місяці тому

      What you are referring to, she doesn't have much experience calling plays. After a while you get an inward feel for how long a ball is hit and you can pace your call to see if it leaves the park, etc. Experience is a premium here, and she doesn't have much of it. That's why she struggles. She probably should have done minor league radio for several years to get that "feel".

    Jenny isn’t all that bad in isolation. What’s much more problematic for her is when she’s compared to the A’s (largely) home announcer this season - Chris Carey. When you listen to the two of them back-to-back, there’s simply no comparison. Chris is - by far - more naturally talented at this.
    Why is that problematic? Chris Carey is 24 years old and had only been calling games professionally for 18 months before this season. Jenny’s been at this for 15 years. I’m sure it helped for Chris to grow up in a family of announcers (He’s the great-grandson of Harry Carey, grandson of Skip Carey, and son of Chip Carey.)
    But nepotism be damned….he’s really, really good. And unfortunately, Jenny suffers in comparison when so much natural talent is right there in the same booth.

Now, surgeon or midwife.... equity should not be a large factor there. But, literally, as much as we love baseball, how good or bad or qualified or equity-based the announcer is MEAN NOTHING IMPORTANT TO WORLD AT ALL.

      DEI hire and you can't hire a minority because shocker, people don't care about race in baseball. They thought bringing in a female announcer would give them liberal brownie points nut the people online bitching everything is offensive aren't the people watching games. That's why the Indians were more popular and sold more tickets than the Guardians. Not onlywas she just hired because she's a woman, she's also terrible at her job, doesn't know enough, has a horrible voice and does terrible calls. They got the Padres ex media woman instead of someone with actual experience calling games, or at least bring up a former player if you're gonna hire someone without experience.

    As a longtime Rockies fan, I could have warned you about this. She got her start with us as a sideline reporter and I never liked her doing that. The few times she was put in the booth I couldn’t take it, I had to put the tv on mute. It made me appreciate our regular PbP guys a lot more. Everything sounds so forced with her, she’s always a second behind the play and when she tries to act excited her voice just gets comedically high pitched. It’s a shame on two fronts: 1) Kuiper was a great announcer and part of a Bay Area family that has owned baseball PbP in that area, and I think he was treated unfairly because it seemed like a genuine mistake; 2) There were WAY more qualified woman announcers who deserved that honor, Jenny had zero experience short of filling in the booth a handful of times for our Rockies games.
    Also worth noting: I’m not certain she was the best pick to hire as a sideline reporter for the Rockies in the first place. It seemed to me that there was some twisted nepotism going on. Her father is the baseball coach for Regis HS in Denver, a private school with a VERY competitive baseball program. Kyle Freeland graduated from there. As the head coach for one of the best high school programs in Denver, her father had a close relationship with the Rockies front office, it’s easy to assume he helped her get her foot in the door after she graduated Colorado State with no real experience, and a voice clearly not made for sports. Nothing sounds natural coming from her, it all sounds like really bad acting.
    Poor A’s fans, as if they didn’t have enough issues as it was. If they just had better owners and a more graceful city council, they could have built a new stadium and not have to move to Vegas. With all the money in the Bay Area, it’s a shame cheapness caused them to leave town. They had a lot of great history there. 🫤
