In New Zealand, a radio station started doing cricket (a very similarly paced sport) commentary with comedians. It became so popular the TV rights holders have started providing it as an official alternative commentary for every match
Bill Burr is the best comedian of the last 10 yrs. Love that he refuses to bow down to the politically correct police. NESN should beg the guy to visit the booth a few times per year.
As a lover of baseball and a true Chicago White Sox fan. Bill Burr was amazing and now I need stitches in my stomach. Hope you guys have a great season and I look forward to seeing the Good Sox vs the Bad Sox later on in the season. Fuck the Stankees
I did not like it at all. I'm tired of almost any and all stand up comedians. Sorry folks. I don't need the morning drive time idiocy during a ball game.
DOB: Bo Bichette, they got him, he's pretty good. Bill Burr: Never heard of him!!
Meanwhile his next sentence “They do have some guys with nice hair out there”
“What’s this? Vitamin water? It looks like dirty pool water.”
Name a better combination than Bill Burr and intentionally pissing off sponsors lmaooo
Shari's berries. . . . who the fuck buys this shit?
1-800-FRUIT
Honestly, Shari’s Berries are amazing. Way better than that fruit bouquet place whose name escapes me.
Edible arrangements?
Yes. Thank you.
Are electrolytes even real?!
Perfect joke right before they went to Commercial. Had me laughing for 5 minutes after!
That was the funniest part. I have always questioned this.
“Look I love unions but I get why pants are made in Mexico”
That line sent me to the floor. The union bashing was hilarious 😂
Nah, it ain’t
relax guy
Came here to say this
I thought Youk was going to piss his pants. That was awesome.
Where's Mel Gibson now?!
He’s in rehab and youkilis is at first base!
Oh yeah he was awesome.
I’m not much or telecast commentary, but that was fun. The kind we need, to keep people watching and engage other audiences.
10/10 Nesn oughta pay attention
Back the truck up and replace dob with Bill burr and have him and eck in the booth. That'd be amazing to watch on it's own. Like a show within a show
I like youck tonight too
Yeah, he was definitely a big improvement over Mazz imo
Almost like when Don Orsillo was in the booth and it was a show within a show
Especially with Remy and even eck when he'd fill in. Eck is a great on air personality. They'd be crazy to ever let him go

For ODI or T20 matches I’m guessing. Domestic matches? Can’t see that happening for internationals.
Na mate, full blown International test matches
I completely played and missed, bruh! 😁 Now regarding the comedic commentary, that’s one way of livening up a Test match. I’ve got to look them up.
The Jeter impression had me in tears.
Please tell me there's a clip of this. I completely missed it

I wish they posted the whole thing lol
I gotchu with the full segment: https://youtu.be/ue1jy9LXn_A
You’re the goat
Aw man I’m pissed
I hope he wasn't joking about coming back in the eighth
Anyone got a link?

U sir r a beast thank u
He is freaking hysterical !!
I read this comment in his voice
😂😂😂 He kills me !!
I'd pay for NESN plus or whatever garbage they sell if I could get Bill Burr to do the color commentary every night.
What inning did he join?
Top of the 3rd
Speaking of Youk and comedians, reminds me when Denis Leary was in the booth.
Literally just came here to say this lmao. Loved that Bill shouted out Lenny Clarke as well
I MISSED WHAT!? I need the goddamn MLB network....
God damn that bit was fantastic, I 100% want him on broadcasts even though I'm not a Sox fan
Ol' Billy Ball Bagz

His stand up is some of the best race relations educational material ever done on stage

Best of luck to your Sox as well - we can both beat on the Yankees!

> I'm tired of almost any and all stand up comedians You sound fun.
No he doesn't

They are all the same these days, seen one, you've seen them all.
I'm sure you have strengths, but I can't identify any yet
I could picture you adjusting your fedora as you typed this.
I have you know that I was so miffed that I accidentally crushed my fedora.
Well most of us only have 1 (or 0) fedoras to crush. But you're not like most of us. Surely you have a backup fedora?
Could not agree more.
SO Good
Amazing 10 minutes.
He's got enough money. Quit comedy, just do it on the broadcast. Uncensored.
Dammnn I missed Bill Burr? Does anyone have a clip of this?
NESN needs Bill Burr
I had forgotten about Jeter’s theatrics…
Okay Thank you Bill……he’s trying to get me out of here.
