This is true. Buck wasn't wrong those times; reality was.

I checked the schedule and it looks like the time for one of the Sunday games against the Yankees hasn't been set. I'm guessing if the Yankees are fighting for a playoff spot at that point in the season the game will be on Sunday Night Baseball.

Any reason given for Buck's absence from Saturday's broadcast? I'm sure I just missed it..

For now I'm under the working assumption he quit after realizing how mundane Pat Tabler is to listen to all the time... ;)

(Guess they hid Jamie somewhere in the studio huh?)

He sounds a little awkward at times. To be honest I didn't think Jamie Campbell was that bad.

Martinez works for TBS on Sundays as an analyst.

Sam Cosentino was worse than Campbell. I have never heard anyone get so excited about a routine fly ball to left field.

Is Buck a type-A type of analyst? He seems to always be the analyst in big games (playoff games).. so it really made me wonder how he landed this play-by-play gig with the Jays?

I miss Jamie Campbell :( . I guess I like him even more since his work at the winter Olympics after he called so many huge gold medal wins for Canada.

I muted him when watching the Olympics at least 3 times. Once when he said that something was "rad"
