Комментаторы NESN раскритиковали Фрамбера Вальдеса за намеренный удар по игроку «Ред Сокс»
В матче против «Детройт Тайгерс» команда «Бостон Ред Сокс» одержала уверенную победу со счетом 10:3. Однако игра сопровождалась серьезным инцидентом, вызвавшим резкую критику со стороны трансляционной группы NESN.В четвертом иннинге питчер «Тайгерс» Фрамбер Вальдес допустил серию неудач: он позволил Уилсону Контрерасу и Вильеру Абреу выбить хоум-раны, после чего первым же питчем попал в спину игрока «Ред Сокс» Тревора Стори. Комментаторы матча не скрывали возмущения действиями игрока.Аналитик Уилл Мидлбрукс назвал ситуацию «издевкой», отметив, что когда питчер не может вывести бьющих, он начинает целить в них мячом, и добавил, что виновник инцидента пытается скрыться. Ведущий трансляции Дэйв О'Брайен также подверг критике поведение Вальдеса, назвав его «слабым» после того, как тот пропустил три хоум-рана и намеренно попал в Стори.Несмотря на то что сам Вальдес после игры пытался отрицать умышленный характер попадания, эксперты сочли это очевидным. Со стороны «Бостон Ред Сокс» ответной агрессии в данном эпизоде не последовало, однако инцидент вызвал бурную реакцию профессионального сообщества и комментаторов.
Red Sox broadcast fumes at Framber Valdez for acting like a child in bench-clearing move: 'What a joke'
Stop the presses — the Boston Red Sox have won two games in a row. That's right. One more win today, and that will be something we call a "winning streak." Look out, MLB!Of course, Boston's latest win over the Detroit Tigers didn't come without some serious drama. It's 2026. There is always drama in Boston this year, it seems.The Sox absolutely pummeled Detroit, 10-3, Tuesday night in a game that was a laugher from the start. Boston jumped on Tigers pitcher Framber Valdez all night long, belting three homers and touching him for 10 runs over three-plus innings. Yikes.Valdez's fourth and final inning is where things really went south. He gave up a mammoth home run to Wilson Contreras to start the frame, and then another one to Wilyer Abreu. The third batter of the inning, Trevor Story, was then belted in the back on the first pitch from Valdez.And that's when things spiraled:"You can't get them out, so you throw at them. What a joke. The one guy who caused it is hiding in the back," said NESN analyst Will Middlebrooks."That is weak," added play-by-play man Dave O'Brien. "You give up three home runs, back-to-back shots, and then you drill Trevor Story."And, just to bring it all home:"Well, let's just hope he doesn't cross up his catcher now that he's mad," said Middlebrooks.RED SOX'S ALEX BREGMAN MAKES HISTORY IN RETURN TO ASTROS HOME BALLPARK, DRAWING CHEERS AND JEERS FROM FANSI mean, just a beatdown from the Red Sox ... and their broadcast team! Finally, this team is showing some FIGHT this season. It only took six weeks. Better late than never, I reckon.Obviously, this was intentional. Valdez tried to play dumb after the game when asked about it, but come on. Stevie Wonder knew he plunked Trevor Story on purpose. It's the oldest trick in the book.You've gotten rocked all night long. You've given up 10 (!!!) runs before the fans even got to their seats. Wilson Contreras hit his to the moon and threw his bat to the first row.So, naturally, someone's getting hit. That someone happened to be Trevor Story, right in the middle of the numbers in the back. That's Pitching 101.As for the Red Sox broadcast crew ripping Valdez, I don't blame them, either. Will Middlebrooks is a former big leaguer. He's seen it all. He's not shy in the NESN or WEEI booth, nor should he be. Speak your mind! That's why you're there.This is why we want professional athletes in the booth. I want to hear what they think when something like this happens, so I can make sure what I'm thinking is correct.Now, I didn't really need that confirmation in this case, but it was still nice to have.The Red Sox, by the way, never retaliated. I would expect that to change today.
